TreeFolks is thrilled to participate in Amplify Austin 2014 – a city-wide giving day that offers a fun, exciting, and incentivized way of giving to causes you care about. Please help us continue our work in the community by showing your generosity on March 20-21 during the 24-hours of giving. You can set a calendar reminder now that at 6pm on March 20th you have 24-hours to give back where it counts. Or forget about a calendar reminder and schedule your donation today. Set-it and forget it, and still be part of this exciting effort to raise funds for TreeFolks and the more than 400 participating Austin non-profits on March 20-21st.
Instructions for scheduling a donation ahead of time:
1. Go to TreeFolks’ profile at AmplifyATX.Org: amplifyatx.org/treefolks.

5. You will have the opportunity to input data to create a public facing profile that communicates your excitement and love for the mission of TreeFolks.
6. Once all information is uploaded, click Submit Fundraiser for Approval.
7. Your profile must be approved by our organization before it is active to start sharing with your friends.
8. Your fundraiser profile, once approved, you will get a confirmation email. At that point, you can share your page with your network of folk and get them excited about the opportunity to give on Amplify Austin. They can also schedule donations through your fundraiser page to set-it and forget it for their donation to run on Amplify Austin day.
Thank you!!!
