Initial Set-Up

The first time you visit the 99Pledges, you will have to add your student(s) as a participant.  Click “Add Participant” and follow a few easy steps to create a personal pledge page for student(s).  

Once you fill in all the information, you will receive an EMAIL with a link to manage your page.  SAVE and BOOKMARK this email.  It contains your personal link to make changes, to invite friends and family to your page and to log your minutes of reading time.  

Invite your Family and Friends to Pledge Donations

Once your student’s personal page is created, go to your email account and find the welcome email from Rita Zoph with your “private profile management page” link.  Once in the “Manage Participant” page, click on the “Invite Tab” and then “ADD INVITATION.”  Have your family and friends’ emails and phone numbers available.  

Alternatively, you can personally message anyone the main donation page link:  https://app.99pledges.com/fund/cabrillo2024.  Your friends and family will see the image below and they can follow directions on the web page to donate on behalf of a specific student, or just donate to the school in general. 

Your family and friends will be directed to your child’s page where it shows their reading goal and gives donors a choice of how much they would like to contribute to your child.

Log your students Reading Minutes

Once your student’s personal page is created, go to your email account and find the welcome email from Rita Zoph with your “private profile management page” link.  Once in the “Manage Participant” page, click on the “Invite Tab” and then “TRACK.” 

REMEMBER:  There are individual, class and school wide PRIZES for reaching our donation goals AND reading minute goals.  See a list of Prizes on the PTO website.

NOTE:  Paper forms of both pledge and reading minutes logs are available in the office OR on the PTO website.  Submit paper or log minutes online, you do not need to do both.
