We use the online fundraising platform piggybackr to make it easy for athletes to collect donations from out of town friends and family. A link to the piggybackr fundraiser will be sent to athletes after the start of the season. Athletes follow the instructions on the piggybackr fundraiser page to setup a fundraising page of their own. After their page is setup, athletes can share their page with friends and family via e-mail and text. They may also choose to share their page on any of their social media accounts such as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
