Individual Profile

Setting up your profile

Your profile in givezooks is a way for you to share as little or as much information about yourself as you want. To simplify the donation process to your favorite Nonprofits, you can put in your contact information – it will be used to default the appropriate fields as you donate. If you are fundraising for a Nonprofit you may also want to add a profile photo, so that you can include it in your Fundraiser and personalize it even more. The information will be available in the 'About Me' section of any of your Fundraisers.

Below is some more detailed information about filling out your profile and how it is used.


 Field Description
 NameIt's just that easy - put in your first and last name. You may also choose to keep them private by checking the boxes below your name.
 Display Name
Display Name is optional, but you can put your nickname, any pseudonym or alias.
 Phone Number
You can put your phone number in if you want (we won't call you), but it will be used if you donate to cut down on typing in your contact information. You may also choose to keep it private by checking the box below your phone number.
 TagsYou can choose some tags that define your interests. They will be used to make the site more relevant for you (e.g., Environment, Education, Autism).
 AddressYou can also put your address in if you want (we won't stop by unless we're invited). If you donate, it will cut down on the need to type in your contact information. Also, you may choose to keep it private by checking the box below your phone number. Putting in your Zip will also determine which Community or Geographic region your searches will apply to, but you can always change your preference to search in other locations.
 Profile Photo
If you are fundraising for an organization it is nice to include a picture of yourself so that it will show up in the 'About Me' section of the Fundraiser. If you want to change the photo, just upload another one and the old one will be replaced.
