FAQs
How will I know the total raised in my loved one’s Tribute Fund?
You will be able to view the fundraising total on the homepage of your Tribute Fund.
We will also send you a quarterly update with the latest news from the Association and the total you have raised so far.
You will notice that your email updates will have an offline and online donation breakdown. You can check the total against what appears on your Tribute Fund page and add any offline donations in your Tribute settings under the Donations tab and clicking ‘My Donations’.
You can also follow our step-by-step video on adding offline donations here.
I have already raised funds before setting up a Tribute Fund, can these be added?
Once a Tribute Fund is set up, any of the Guardian's historic donations and fundraising will be safely recorded in the Tribute Fund.
The total will be displayed in your welcome letter and in your quarterly email updates, so that you can update your online Tribute Fund page with the total raised.
You can also let us know about other fundraising, such as from friends and family, that should be recorded in the Tribute Fund. Email the Tribute Funds team with the details of the donations and a member of the team will support with linking the funds.
Some loved ones would like to support, but don’t want to donate online; how can they donate?
Donations can be made over the phone at 01604 611860 or by sending a cheque to:
Motor Neurone Disease Association
Francis Crick House
6 Summerhouse Road
Moulton Park
Northampton
NN3 6BJ
They should share who their donation is in memory of, either by telling our team over the phone or including a cover letter if sending by post, so that it can be linked to your Tribute fund.
Is my Tribute Fund private?
Your Tribute Fund will be set to public when you create your page, so that people can locate the page by searching for your loved one’s name in the ‘Search for a Tribute Fund’ search box.
If you would like to set your Tribute Fund to private, you can do this under ‘Privacy & Sharing’ in your Tribute Settings.
