Managing Personal Events

Personal Events are events that constituents host on your organization's behalf. There are three levels to a Personal Event:

  1. Campaigns - Create a Campaign around a theme or issue, such as wilderness conservation.

  2. Activities - Create one or more activities around a campaign, such as a 5-mile hike, an overnight campout, or a wilderness movie night.

  3. Personal Events - Constituents sign up to host these activities, which creates a Personal Event. If you have six hosts for each of your three Activities, you would have a total of 18 Personal Events.

Hosts can access a Host Center from which they can send invitations to friends and maintain a list of those who will attend. Administrators also maintain a list of all Personal Events, Hosts, and Attendees and can register guests and edit or delete Constituent information when necessary. Administrators can also run reports to help determine the success of Campaigns and Activities.

Note: Although Personal Events are designed to spread awareness about your organization, you can also associate them with a donation form to allow participants to contribute to your organization.
