Additional gifts are supplementary donations that donors can contribute when sponsoring children. These gifts allow donors to support specific causes or needs beyond their regular sponsorship commitments.

To navigate to "Additional Gifts" click on "Campaigns & Programs" on the main menu and click the "Additional Gifts" Tab.

The Additional Gifts page shows you a list of the additional gifts you created on your HelpYouSponsor account. To create an additional gift, click the "Create Additional Gift" button in the top right corner.

This will open up a drawer with a form to create the additional gift.

The form requires four fields;

  • Designation name: This is the name of the additional gift.

  • Accounting Code: You can use any accounting code of your choice.

  • Donor form: Choose one of the listed donor profile forms.

  • Email set: Choose one of the listed email sets.

To edit an additional gift, click the "Edit" button of the additional gift you wish to edit in the table. This will open up a drawer with the editing form.

When editing an additional gift, you are also able to add more information about the additional gift in the "Info" field as well as add specific donation amounts for the gift in the "Donation Amounts" field.
