IRSF has just created a Fundraising page on FirstGiving.com!

This online donation module will be used for Events across the globe!

By creating your very own First Giving page will help you and your friends and family keep track of online donations and your progress.

How it works:

1. Go to www.firstgiving.com/rettsyndrome to view IRSF’s page and to create your very own fundraising page.
2. Click on “GET STARTED” under ‘Want to raise money?’ and then select the event you are participating in. If you do not see your event please contact Jenni Grammer at This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it to have your event added to the list! 
3. Then you’ll want to create an account! NOTE: You don't have to create an account on First Giving if you just want to donate to a team.  Simply search by team name and click "sponsor me now" on that team members page!  Once you’ve created your account it will ask you if you’d like to join a team or create a team. If you just want to create your fundraising page then click “skip this step”. If you decide that you want to join a team just search for the Team you want to join and click Join Team and then create your fundraising page! This way all the donations you raise will be credited to the Team you joined!
4. Next you will be asked to create your very own online address for your fundraising page! Tip: if you are creating a page for your Rett Angel you may want to use her name instead of your own for your web address. 
5. Now it’s time to PERSONALIZE your page! You can add pictures, a video and a write up on why you are fundraising for IRSF and what it means to you! It’s FUN and EASY to do! Plus once you’ve created your page you can post it on your Facebook page and email your link directly to your friends and family. You can personalize your thank you email that donors will get automatically as well. You can make each and every part of your page YOURS!

The support team at First Giving is extremely helpful and the entire site is VERY user-friendly. If you have any questions or need help please contact Jenni Grammer at This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it or at 513-874-2657.

Happy Fundraising! Let’s see who can raise the most for their team!
