- Visit the 2025 Golf Fights Cancer page and click the ‘Register to Play’ button.
- If you played in 2024, you already have a login and can have your password emailed to you.
- Enter your information to complete the registration form. Make sure you answer the question, “If you were referred to GFC’s Golf Marathon by one of our peer organizations, please select below?” – choose DetecTogether from the dropdown menu.
- Once submitted, check your email to ‘Claim Your Page.’ Follow the link in this confirmation to open your fundraising page.
- Now it is time to customize your page! Go to the top right ‘Go To’ button next to your profile, picture and click on Fundraising page.
- Click on ‘Manage’ on the top right.
- First, add a photo to your page. It is proven that adding a photo gives the fundraiser better results. Click ‘upload’ to browse and get a new photo from your computer/phone. Insert and crop the photo if necessary. Make sure to save changes!
- Next, when back at the Details page, set a new URL to personalize your fundraising page. (This will give you the ability to text the URL much easier on social sites and via text.) Pick a new name for your URL (https://give.classy.org/yournewpagename).To ensure that this has worked, copy and paste the URL into a new page to make sure it responds to the change.
- Now set your new goal. The minimum amount to raise for this event is $4,000 for individual participants, $2,000 for junior participants (25 years or younger), and $1,000 for virtual participants, but we welcome and encourage attendees to strive to raise as much as they can. Enter your new amount and hit save.
- On the details page, you can also update the header name and page headline if you would like.
- With these updates complete, now hit the next tab titled ‘Story’. This is where you will personalize why you are participating in the GFC Million Dollar Golf Marathon. You can add videos, photos, and text to let your donors know why this cause is so important to you. Make sure you note in your story that “100% of donations made to my fundraising efforts will be distributed to DetecTogether.” Once you work on the page and perfect it, click save.
