Adding Donation Towards a Sponsorship
In Engage, once a sponsorship has been created for a particular beneficiary under any related scheme, the donor/sponsor can donate towards that sponsorship at any time. This donation can be both single or a regular giving. When a certain donation is made, a donor can always make an additional donation.
To read more on how to make a general single donation or regular giving, go to Creating Donations Documentation.
To make a donation towards a sponsorship, follow the steps defined.
1. To donate immediately while creating a new sponsorship, select Create and Donate and navigate to the Enter Donation screen. To donate later after saving a sponsorship, search for the existing sponsorship and click the document icon.
