### Protect Your Charity Event with a Professional Participant Waiver

Running a charity fundraising event—whether it's a fun run, walkathon, cycling challenge, or community activity—comes with important legal and operational responsibilities. This **Charity Event Participant Waiver** template gives nonprofit organizations, event coordinators, and fundraising teams a complete, ready-to-use solution for managing registrations, liability releases, fundraising commitments, and media consent in one streamlined form.

#### Why This Template Works for Nonprofits and Event Organizers

Instead of juggling separate registration forms, paper waivers, and email chains, this template combines everything participants need to sign up, acknowledge risks, commit to fundraising minimums, and grant photo permissions—all in one professional, easy-to-complete form. It's designed specifically for charities and community organizations that need to protect themselves legally while creating a smooth registration experience for supporters.

The form captures essential participant information, emergency contacts, health disclosures, liability releases, fundraising pledges, cancellation policy acknowledgments, and media release consent. Conditional logic ensures that only relevant questions appear based on participant choices, keeping the form concise and focused.

#### Perfect for Multiple Charity Event Types

This template adapts to various fundraising events including charity runs, walks, bike rides, hikes, obstacle courses, dance-a-thons, volunteer challenges, and community fundraising activities. Whether you're organizing a small local event or a large-scale charity challenge, this waiver provides the legal protection and participant information you need.

#### How Paperform Enhances Your Charity Event Management

With Paperform's flexible editor, you can customize this waiver to match your nonprofit's branding, add your event logo and images, adjust fundraising minimums, and modify legal language to suit your specific event requirements. The form can be embedded on your event website, shared via social media, or sent directly to potential participants.

**Collect payments and fundraising commitments**: Connect Stripe, PayPal, or Square to collect registration fees, deposits, or initial fundraising contributions directly through the form. Use Paperform's calculation fields to show running totals based on registration type or donation levels.

**Automate follow-up workflows**: After submission, use **[Stepper](https://stepper.io)** to automatically send confirmation emails, add participants to your event management system, create personalized fundraising pages, schedule reminder emails about fundraising deadlines, and keep your team organized as registrations roll in.

**Secure digital signatures**: Integrate **[Papersign](https://papersign.com)** to collect legally binding eSignatures on liability waivers and release forms, creating a complete audit trail for each participant's consent and acknowledgment.
