Creating a Giving Form
1
Click "GIVING"
2
Click "Forms"
3
Click "NEW FORM"
4
Enter the Form Name (which will identify it later) and the Call To Action field, which will be displayed on the donation form itself (see arrow).
5
Set your primary and secondary colors. The preview will give you a live view of your selections.
6
Enter the suggested donation amounts here.
You're able to create multiple giving forms and campaign pages, so you may want to consider creating a giving form for individual donors, and one for corporate donors, if appropriate. You can also create a giving form for specific fundraisers.
7
You may toggle the options that you want for your giving form here. The "Other Amount" allows for a custom donation option. The "Display Cover Fees" options allows donors to opt in to covering the credit card processing fees. Research indicates that 70%+ of donors will cover these fees if the option is presented to them.
Obtaining the Embeddable Code for Your Website
8
Every giving form comes with an embeddable code that you can put onto your website.
9
Click on "Copy Code" in order to paste it directly onto your website staging platform.

Creating A Campaign Page
11
Click "GIVING"
12
Click "Campaigns"
13
Click "New Campaign" or the pencil to edit an existing campaign page.
There are no limits to the number of campaign pages that you create! If you'd like a fundraiser-specific page, or a particular campaign-specific page, feel free to create as many as you'd like!
14
Enter and Campaign Title and a Campaign Goal ($ amount)
15
Click "UPLOAD COVER PHOTO" which will serve as your campaign's photo.
16
Enter any text you'd like in the text box. Take this opportunity to explain your mission and/or the specific campaign goals. You can also create impact measures for your donors to understand your program's expenses.
17
To add an impact measure, enter the dollar amount and a short description of the impact that donation can make.
Be careful not to make any promises or guarantees to donors on how funds *will* be used, as this is not conducive within a fiscal sponsorship relationship.
Assigning a Specific Giving Form to a Campaign Page
18
When you're satisfied with the photo, text, and impact measures, click into Settings.
19
Click the down arrow to select the giving form that you want to assign to this specific campaign page.
You will only be able to assign Giving Forms that are already created. If you need to back out to create one first, you can always come back to edit the Campaign Page.
