  2. Click on the "Profile Dropdown" in the NavBar (or click this LINK)

  3. Choose your organization's website from the Table

  4. Scroll down and click "Manage DNS"

  5. Under "Forwarding" click on the ADD next to "SUBDOMAIN"

  6. Type the word "donate" into the SUBDOMAIN field

  7. Select "https://" (the one ending in "s") from the FORWARD TO dropdown.

  8. Add your Harness Donation Page that you'd like to display to the "FORWARD TO" field (this link can be found on your Harness Admin Dashboard - Home Page) and should look something like this:  https://[organization].harnessapp.com/wv2

  9. Select "Temporary (302)" as the FORWARD TYPE

  10. Under SETTINGS, select "Forward with masking"

  11. "Masking Information" will then be displayed below.  Add whatever Title, Description and Keywords you'd like for this page to show up as.  Use the "Additional Resources" below for more information on these.
