So that's where donor donations will go in regards to the event So if you already have access to your nonprofit page You'll notice on the left hand side and there is a dashboard This is where you're going to be able to manage and edit your page And your dashboard is composed of some key sections and we'll be going to them over in more detail But just to go over on some of the key functions that they hold so the home section Which is the top one is going to be able you're going to be able to view your to-do list and as you complete Different areas of your to-do list. It's going to check off. So, you know, what else you need to complete as well I'll show you your registration status and some other additional information Profile will give you the page editing tools that you need to customize your organization page Donations will allow you to review donor information Export that and also customize your donor experience your checkout flow Campaigns will allow you to review any fundraising efforts that you've created for your organization And the last one is settings which is going to be able to manage some of your Organizations presence on the Art Van Charity Challenge website as well.

This is what you'll Send in your emails or on social media. This is where donors can go to make a donation to your organization The first thing that you'll want to do is customize the branding like I mentioned So at the top in the middle section There is an area for you to upload your logo one of the key things to know about this area Is that it is a one-to-one aspect ratio and most cases the logo that you have on your Facebook page? We'll work in this area, but please make sure that if your logo is rectangular It may not fit in that page and you'll have to crop it Behind the logo image is a background image as you notice these individuals right here This is a great opportunity to just again share the mission of your organization and it provides a more Pop-out experience when donors come on to your page as well. You'll be able to edit the colors on the Donate button as and the about section so that green color is where you can choose the theme color So this will allow you to match the color that you have in your website again creating a more branded experience for your page in addition on Your profile page there will be an inline text editor Your inline text editor will allow you to add the story of your campaign and your organization So at the top of your inline text editor There is going to be the options to add bullet points add numbering numbering Add photos videos Emojis whatever you want or that you need in order to tell your story We also have some shortcuts that are available on a support forum on our website Where you can quickly on your keyboard as well? bold underline or italicized words on your page In addition to this story area if you would like to share even more additional area There is the ability to create a custom tab So if you want to create your own photo gallery or you want to provide Information on different events that you guys have going around during the year or volunteer opportunities This custom tab is a great way in order to share that information Towards the bottom of your page. This is where we provide you the ability to add Social media information as well as a media gallery these op this is completely an optional area You don't have to fill it out. But again, this is a great way to connect your organization With all of the social media that you have and share with donors the Your mission and impact in a visual way below your story As you see you can add images from Facebook Instagram Or you can simply upload from your computer and you can pick and choose which one you would prefer to do Within settings so the last icon on your left-hand side dashboard There will be an area called social sharing settings So this is an area we definitely recommend that you review and edit This will allow you to edit what your page looks like when you share it on social media So when you add that URL link to Facebook what auto populates when people click post So if you go to social sharing settings as you see you'll be able to edit a different image If you would like that you can edit and have your own description for that link or edit the title so again, I would recommend just to review this and make sure that it is Showing the information that you would like to show when donors do decide to share this page if You are adding a donation button onto your website for the campaign you can do so with the donation widget You can find this as well in Your page settings or you can actually find this right on your profile. There will be a Greater than an equal to sign on your left-hand side right below your social share icons And if you select that that will open this embed this fundraiser pop up and Adding a donation button onto your page is really easy This allows you to secure donations for the charity challenge from individuals that come on to your website instead of your page on the art main charity challenge website It the donation button that you can embed is going to be a more simplified donor experience But it allows donors the opportunity to select the donation levels that you've inputted and to quickly make a donation through your website This is an embed code that we provide So you or your webmaster can simply copy the embed code and paste it into the back end of your website This is really easy to do if you have WordPress Wix etc. If you have any questions about how to embed your widget onto your website Please feel free to reach out to our support team or more than happy to help guide you through as to how to do that Once you start receiving donations for your charity challenge You'll receive an email notification letting you know that you've received a donation all Administrators for your organization will receive this notification if you have multiple Administrators and some of those administrators don't want to receive an email notification. That's no problem Within your user account settings. You can simply turn off those notifications More importantly, you can always access this information on your left-hand side dashboard through the area called donations and then donations report Your donations report will auto populate the donations from the last 30 days If you want to look up a specific day or a specific week You can change this report period to be a custom date range and choose what you want that to be It'll show you the basic information of those donors So we'll show you the donor's name their email address their donation amount and If you have fundraising pages of the page that they donated from If you are looking for more extensive information on those donations Let's say that you have decided to collect address information or phone numbers all of that information will be available on the the downloadable Excel sheet as well if you need to import this information Elsewhere you can export it into that Excel sheet and Import it into, you know, your CRM system donor management system, etc If you are accepting donations offline from the platform So let's say you receive a cash donation or a check you can still report that for your page by adding an Available on the donations report So simply select add offline donation and a pop-up will open up Asking you to enter certain information like their name their contact information the amount not all of that is required But it's available there so that you have your reporting all in one place And once you add that offline donation your total rate your total raised will be up to date So that donors can see the accurate information on how much you've raised great So as you as I mentioned start receiving donations We will send out disbursements to your organization as well under donations on your left-hand side There is a submenu underneath donations report called disbursements Disbursements will give you your disbursement history and will also give you access to disbursement breakdown In Addition all administrators will receive an email notification letting them know that a disbursement has been sent out to their Organization and a link that is available here will be provided in your email As I mentioned in the beginning one of the things on your to-do list will be to set up EFT, which is available on your settings and With EFT Organizations receive donations twice a month so donations will be sent out around the 10th or the 25th of the month and Donations will be sent on either date depending on the date of that donation and when it was made if your organization Chooses not to receive funds via direct deposit. You can automatically receive funds via check However, there is a $5 service fee and sending a physical check and donations then are only sent once a month So that's why we highly recommend to set up direct deposit on the page In order to set up direct deposit You'll need to enter your account and routing number in addition to providing a voided check or bank letter That just confirms the numbers that you've provided And in addition as I also mentioned in the beginning one of the things on your to-do list will be to customize your thank you page And this is will be also the area where you can Edit your checkout flow So the donor experience allows you to choose what data you want to collect from donors One step of this area is the ability to edit those donation levels and add donor Descriptions, so for example, we have some pre-populated Ones $25 50 75 100 however if you want to edit that so that says ten dollars and maybe you want to add a description where You ten dollars purchases a backpack for a student for example You can add that information and now I'll be shown to donors once they select a donate and go through the checkout flow Donors will have the opportunity to leave a dedication and memory or on behalf of someone However, if you want to also give donors the option to designate their donation if you have multiple funds that you want to Provide the donors the ability to choose from you can enter that information within your donor experience and They will be shown during the checkout flow Most importantly, you can always preview the donation experience before the charity's challenge begins So that you're seeing exactly what donors see when they go to make their donation on The top of your donor experience. There are two tabs one is checkout flow that we just talked about the second is post checkout The thank you page is available to be edited there The thank you page is the first thing donor sees when they finish their transaction and This area allows you to add your own photos videos similar to the inline text editor on your story and description area You can really take hold of this area and again Make sure that the experience is matching the experience on your website and have that branded opportunity for you if You would like to add a custom CTA you can also do that So if you want to send donors to a blog that you have or maybe there's a special place on your website where people can Subscribe to a newsletter. It's a great opportunity to say Subscribe to our newsletter and provide that link right here In addition below your thank you page There is an area to add a custom thank you message on your donation receipt Once donors finish their donation and they've received their thank you page a donation receipt will be Automatically sent to their email address will provide all that receipt information But if you want to add a thank you message On top of that receipt the first thing donors see when they open up that email You can customize that here and again both things you can preview so you can review what donors will exactly be seen Once you start accepting donations in addition to Your donations report disbursements and donor experience under the donation section of your left-hand side dashboard One of the last sections is matching grants if your organization has been able to Acquire a magic grant for the challenge You can display that information on your page so that donor see that you have an active grant It's a great opportunity for donors to know and be cognizant that their donation is making a bigger impact for your organization When you enter your matching grant we recommend adding an image and filling out a title for your matching grant This will be displayed right on the page so donors can always see how much the matching grant is and what is left of it as Well on the donation button, they'll be able to see that there is a live matching grant We have flexible matching options So you can have it be numerical or if you want to state that the first 20 donors there is a match You can have that the opportunity to edit and provide that sort of match You can also have multiple matches happening at one time so it's also a great opportunity to reach out to your network and to the local businesses and Try to acquire more than one matching grant if possible You can set matching grants to start after one has been fulfilled So there's lots of opportunities to Edit and make sure that you have a matching grant at any point during your three-week challenge And most importantly you can count matching funds in your total raise So if you choose to have a thermometer at the top of your page your matching grants will be Within that total Some organizations like to create a fundraising page for Their challenges and if you do decide to create a separate fundraising page For your challenge you can review all those campaigns here as well as if you have Individuals that are creating peer-to-peer fundraisers. You can review all of them under the campaign section of your left-hand side dashboard this area just like Every other area on the platform you can export Your campaigns report so you can see everyone who's created a peer-to-peer campaign and Information on those and as well you can easily start a new fundraiser from this area If you have individuals that are creating peer-to-peer fundraisers for you You can also choose to hide them from on the platform or not through this campaigns area And the last section on your left-hand side dashboard is settings So as I mentioned in the beginning, this is where you can add or remove administrators You can update your legal name or address You can set up EFT disbursement and as well you can customize the social sharing buttons and the end of the url So if you want to update the end of your url, you can do so in this area Great. So that's some some of the administrative and technical Things on the platform. Let's go into a little bit of campaign strategy So one of the things that you'll want to keep an eye out as the challenge Comes closer is some emails from Mighty Cause in regards to tips for your campaign We provide lots of great resources for you to review and give you some great ideas of how you can incentivize donors to donate how you can make your campaign stand out The toolkit on the art van charity challenge website is also a great place to review those resources We have great guides and great checklists that you can review and again any questions that you have about any of that material You can send over to our support team and we can help guide you through any questions you have One of the things that you'll also want to start considering is how to strategize around the prizes There is a if you haven't done so already, please review the prize section on the website And it's a really great idea to start thinking about beforehand And what is your game plan when you can start receiving donations?
