Editing the Name or Description of Your Fund

You can edit the name and description of your fund to fix typographical errors or add information to help people distinguish between several funds of similar names in a list of search results.

The Fund Name displays as the working title of your Fund Web Page and as the name of the fund in lists of search results. To help people distinguish between your fund and other funds with similar names, you can add information to the name. For example, to help people locate the correct fund for Pat Smith when there are several funds named "In Honor of Pat Smith", you can add information to the fund name, such as "In Honor of Pat (Jay) Smith" to the Fund Name.

Note: Changing the Fund Name here does not change the Title of the fund page. You can also edit the Title of your fund page without affecting the Fund Name.

The Fund Description displays along with the name of the fund in lists of search results. Adding biographical information like the Honoree's residence, nickname, or family members to this Description may also help people locate your fund or distinguish it from others with similar names. For example, adding a statement that “Pat was born in Ireland, raised in Elgin, Texas, and spent the last 15 years in Austin, Texas with his wife Audrey” may help someone distinguish your fund from another “Pat Smith of Tampa, FL” that also displays in search results.
