The Multi-Column Block allows you to add one, two, or three content columns directly within the body of your fundraiser page. This is a helpful way to organize information, highlight key campaign details, feature sponsors, share impact statements, or combine text and images in a clean layout.
Each column can be customized individually, allowing you to add text, images, titles, background colors, and styling to create a flexible content section that matches your fundraiser branding.
How to add a Multi-Column Block

Tips for using the Multi-Column Block
For best results, keep each column similar in length so the layout remains balanced.
Use clear, concise titles for each column.
If using images, try to use images with similar dimensions or aspect ratios.
If placing text over a background image, use the Darken background image option to improve readability.
Use the three-column layout for shorter content, such as feature highlights or sponsor recognition. Use the one or two-column layout for longer descriptions or larger images.
