Updated over 8 months ago

You will need the Limited Write Contributions and Contributions Settings permission to perform this action.

All donations are not monetary. Following these steps will create a way for you to record a donation for non-monetary items your church may receive.

Create Designation

First, create a new designation named "Gift In Kind."

Click on Contributions > Settings in the left-hand navigation menu. Then click on the "Designations" tab. From here you can click on the "Add Designation" button and name the designation "Gift In Kind."

Next, add a $0.00 contribution by navigating to Contributions > Transactions in the left-hand navigation menu. Click on "Add transactions" from the "Actions" menu in the top right.


When entering the contribution, set the amount field to $0.00, and in the memo field right underneath, set a description of what was given. You can also include the fair market value if you need to.
