Step 1: Begin the Donation Process

Start the giving process in one of two ways - either by selecting the "Make a Donation" button or by selecting one of the giving levels on the campaign page.

Step 2: Choose a Donation Amount

If you selected a giving level, skip ahead to Step 3. If you selected the "Make a Donation" button, you'll need to select the amount you'd like to give. You can either select one of the amounts displayed or input your own amount. 

Once you've finished filling out that section of the form, click the "Next" button. 

Note: You'll also have the option to make your donations a recurring gift, meaning your donation will be processed at the same time each month for the same amount. This can be done by clicking "Make this a recurring gift."

Step 3: Input Your Credit Card Information 

Enter your credit card information, mailing address, and hit the "Next" button. 

Note: If you are not logged in while making a donation, your email address is required so we can send you a tax-deductible receipt. 

Note: If you're not located in the U.S., you will be able to check "Not located in the United States?" and a country drop down list will appear.

Step 4: Confirm Your Donation 

After confirming your payment details and before submitting your donation, you will be asked to make the following changes and confirmations:

(1) Cover the fees associated with your gift.
(2) Change the display name of the donation.
(3) Remove the display name of the donation.
(4) Remove the display amount of the donation.
(5) Make this a monthly gift.
(6) Contribute the donation to a peer-to-peer fundraiser.
(7) Add a message or comment to your donation.

Once you’ve confirmed the amount and chosen the various options, click the “Confirm” button.

Step 5: Thank You! 

When the donation has been submitted and processed, you’ll be presented with a "Thank You" page. From there, you can go back to the campaign page, go to the  organization's profile, head to their website, or share that you just donated on social media!

Immediately following your donation, you’ll receive a confirmation email with an electronic thank you letter and your tax deductible receipt.
