Creating your DashPledge account #
A DashPledge account gives you access to the tools and information associated with your role in a fundraiser.
The signup process may be different depending on whether you’re joining as a parent or guardian, teacher, or organization representative.
Before you get started #
If you’re joining an existing school fundraiser, use the information provided by your school or organization when creating your account.
Parents and guardians may need information about their child’s school, teacher, or participating student to complete the connection process.
Teachers may need to select or verify the school and campaign associated with their classroom.
1. Start the signup process #
Open the DashPledge signup page or follow the invitation or signup link provided by your school or organization.
Enter the requested account information and continue to the next step.
2. Select your role #
Choose the option that best describes how you’re participating in DashPledge.
Depending on the fundraiser, available roles may include:
- Parent or guardian
- Teacher
- Organization or fundraiser representative
Selecting the correct role is important because DashPledge uses it to provide the appropriate dashboard and fundraising tools.
3. Enter your account information #
Provide the requested information to create your account.
Make sure you use an email address you can access. Your email may be used for account-related communications, fundraiser notifications, and password recovery.
4. Connect to your school or fundraiser #
If you’re participating in an existing fundraiser, DashPledge will guide you through connecting your account to the appropriate school or campaign.
The information requested will depend on your role.
Parents and guardians #
You may be asked to locate your school, teacher, and participating child.
After finding your child, follow the instructions to claim and connect the child to your account.
Teachers #
You may be asked to locate or confirm your school and the campaign associated with your classroom.
Once connected, you’ll be able to access the teacher tools available for that fundraiser.
5. Complete your signup #
Review the information you’ve entered and complete the signup process.
After your account is successfully created and connected, DashPledge will direct you to the appropriate dashboard or next step.
What if I can’t find my school, teacher, or child? #
First, check that the information you entered matches the information provided by your school.
If you still can’t find the correct school, teacher, child, or fundraiser, don’t create duplicate records or repeatedly create new accounts.
Visit the Troubleshooting section of the Help Center for assistance.
What if I already have a DashPledge account? #
If you’ve previously created a DashPledge account, sign in with your existing account instead of creating another one.
Your existing account may be able to connect to additional participating children or fundraising activities.
