LET'S GET STARTED!

In order to reset your annual chapter points to zero, you must register your chapter team page each membership year. Follow these easy steps:

STEP 1:  REGISTER your chapter's team page.

Visit nmdp.org/HOSAChapters and select REGISTER.​

  • There should be only ONE team page per chapter.

  • If you registered a page in the past, log in to your account first. If you are new, create your account and continue to the next step.

When registering the chapter team page, each advisor/team captain must select one option regarding the chapter's plan to add individuals to the NMDP Registry and/or pre-registry:

  • My chapter will add people to the registry with an EXISTING NMDP Join Keyword.

  • My chapter will add people to the registry and we NEED an NMDP Join Keyword.

  • My chapter will not recruit this year.

Once the chapter team page is registered, the advisor/team captain will receive follow-up emails with more information. A separate email will confirm the chapter’s join keyword for the new school/membership year and include your next steps.

 

Please add hosa@nmdp.org and fundraising@donordrive.com to your safe sender list, or ask your district administrator for help. Doing this will ensure you receive all important information from NMDP in a timely manner. Please allow 2-3 days for the join keyword confirmation email to arrive. 

STEP 2:  CUSTOMIZE your chapter's team page.

Add a profile or banner image, logos, photos, videos and more! For a complete overview of the platform, including helpful tips, check out the User Guide.

To ensure your chapter earns points for adding people to the donor registry, make sure to replace the general join keyword on your team page story with your chapter's join keyword.

Replace "hosa" with your chapter's join keyword!

STEP 3:  SHARE your chapter's team page.

Start sharing your chapter's team page and start receiving donations directly to the page! If you have your join keyword updated on your page, someone can order a swab kit to be mailed to them from the page—and your chapter will get the credit.

STEP 4:  REACH OUT to your NMDP representative.

Your local NMDP representative's contact information will be included in the confirmation email for your Join Keyword request. Reach out to them to schedule training to host swabbing events.
