What's the difference between a Cause page, a Fundraising page, etc?

A Cause is what people fundraise for e.g. a charity or not for profit.

A Cause page allows users to donate directly to the cause. These are generally setup by staff or volunteers within the cause.

A Fundraising page is setup by individuals who fundraise in aid of a cause. Fundraising pages let friends and family sponsor individuals and the fundraising page will show a running total, plus messages from donors.

An Event/Challenge/Campaign page is setup by the Cause/Charity which will showcase details about a fundraising event which takes place on a specific day or over a set amount of days. 
These pages list all associated fundraising and team pages created for the event also which contributes to the total amount of funds raised for the event and also include options for users to donate to the event as well as create their own fundraising page which is linked to the event.

A Team page is a page that groups a number of fundraising pages togther in one page that can display a collective total of funds raised or distance completed. All fundraising pages that are part fo the team page will be listed under "Team Members".
