A route and a registration page. No timing chips required.
A fun run combines registration fees with individual fundraising, and brings in donors beyond the usual family network. HypeRaise handles both revenue streams in one place.
Runners pay a flat registration fee and can also collect pledges on a personal fundraising page. Both revenue streams report into the same dashboard.

Yes. Because it's a public, community-facing event, participants can invite donors beyond the usual family network, which typically expands the total donor base compared to a team-only fundraiser.
Both revenue streams, registration payments and individual pledges, report into the same HypeRaise dashboard, so administrators don't have to reconcile two separate systems.
Administrators get real-time registration and pledge totals on event day, followed by a full itemized reconciliation report once the fun run concludes.
