Side-by-Side Comparison

Understand the key differences to make the right choice for your organization.

Team vs Per-Player Campaigns

Feature	Team Campaign	Per-Player Campaign
Fundraising Goal	Single unified goal for entire team	Individual goals per player that aggregate up
Board Setup	One board to manage	Multiple boards (one per player)
Supporter Experience	Support the whole team	Support specific players they know
Social Sharing	Team-wide momentum	Player-specific family networks
Recognition	Team-wide sponsor recognition	Individual player sponsor recognition
Management Complexity	Simple - one board to monitor	More complex - multiple boards to track

Pro Tip: You can run both types of campaigns! Start with a simple team campaign, then create per-player campaigns for special events or individual recognition.
