  3. Finally, select the percentage of your returns that will be automatically donated to the cause and click 'Stake Funds'.

Remember: You can always stake more ETH/stETH/wstETH to the same cause with either the same or different percentage of yield dedicated to the cause. It will be represented as Stake #2 in your Rewards and Donations dashboard.
