- Make sure to have donors who are writing checks include your name in the memo line of a check, or in a note that is sent along with it to ensure that you receive credit for your fundraising efforts. If you do not include your name, we cannot guarantee that you will receive fundraising credit.
- IMPORTANT: Please include a Donation Cover Page (below) with every donation you mail in. This will ensure that you receive credit for the donations – without the cover sheet, we cannot guarantee you will receive credit. To create your donation cover page, please scroll down to fill out your Donation Cover Page.
- We do accept cash. If you are sending cash and your donor would like a receipt, please be sure to indicate their name and address.
- Offline donations will be added by our office to the GivenGain page. There is about a two-week lag period between when we receive your donation and when it will be uploaded to your GivenGain page. Please contact us with questions on the status of your offline gifts.
