Thank you, everyone, for all your interest and support so far! To donate to Special Olympics Utah, please click the following link:
As I have played around with this site, I found that it is very easy to use, if you know what you are looking for. With that in mind, I have decided to include a quick run-down of how to donate if you would like. So, here are my instructions; I hope they're easy enough to follow:
1. Click on "Donate to Special Olympics Utah" which can be found under the Links list at the right.
2. On that new page, click the button that says "Register." You will see it right above my SwifTri logo.
3. Scroll down to the box entitled "Register." In the upper left-hand corner of this box, you will see another, smaller, box in which you can type a numerical value. Enter the amount you wish to donate in this box and then click on "update," which you will find in the lower right-hand corner.
4. Enter your Primary Contact Information
5. Enter your Payment Information (and don't forget to check the authorization box).
6. Click on the button that says "Process Now."
Easy enough, right? It should be, but steps 2 and 3 confused me just a little until I played around with it. Again, you can make a one-time donation in any amount you desire, from $1 to $1,000,000,000 (I may have to figure out something special to do if anybody donates that much). You can also make a pledge to donate a certain amount based on how many races I finish, or based on how I finish in each race. To do this, e-mail your pledge to swiftri@live.com, and then I will e-mail you the results of each race so that you can honor your pledge. And as a reminder, all money donated goes directly to Special Olympics Utah for the benefit of the athletes; I do not see or handle a single penny of any donations. And all donations are tax deductible. This is a great cause; let's help the Special Olympic Utah athletes achieve their goals!
Fundraising Goal:
$1000
My Pledge:
Each race that I finish: $10
Each race that I earn a podium spot*: $25
Each race that I win overall: $100
*Podium spot is1st, 2nd, or 3rd either overall or in my age group
To make a similar pledge based on my race performance, please e-mail your pledge to swiftri@live.com
