Donation
This type of campaign is used to process one-time or recurring donations, or organize a Fund-a-Need, paddle raise, or pledge drive.
Donation Campaign Overview
Donation campaigns can be created two different ways,
By copying a past donation campaign or
By creating a donation campaign from the beginning to do so Navigate to Campaigns click on Create New Campaign and then choose Donation.
Fill in the details for your donation campaign.
Aside from the General Settings under Campaign Configuration, the donation settings have four additional settings specific to a donation campaign that can be set:
Optional campaign goal - This is where we add a thermometer with your goal amount to display the progress to your donors as part of the campaign page. This can motivate your donors to help you reach your goal.
Hide pledge option - This hides the option to make a pledge which is a promise to pay but not an actual donation.
Hide custom amount - If this is switched on your donors will not have the option to donate a custom amount of their choosing. They will only be able to donate at the levels you set under Donation Options.
Hide recurring donation - If this is switched on your donors will not have the option to make their donation recurring. If you leave this option on you can select the recurring frequency you want to make available to your donors for their recurring donations. For example for a Monthly Giving Campaign you may want to uncheck everything else except for Monthly.
After you set the campaign configuration you can add your different levels/donation options by clicking on the Donation Options tab. You can add as many donation options as you'd like.
Hit save and your donation campaign is ready to be added to your event page or shared on your website, or share via email and social media.
To edit your campaign at any time click on Edit from Campaigns.
Use the links or download the QR code and add it to your physical print material.
