Below is a complete guide that outlines how your nonprofit can access funds from ShoppingGives via PayPal Giving Fund.
PayPal Giving Fund
Below are step-by-step directions and an FAQ that will explain how to view a receipt, donor report, and more information about each grant from PayPal Giving Fund when ShoppingGives grants pledged donations:- If your organization is receiving grants from PayPal Giving Fund, you have the ability to view individual stores that have contributed to the overall donation amount. It’s important to note that when a ShoppingGives brand partner pledges over $50 to your organization, that donation will be included in ShoppingGives’ monthly grants. If the $50 minimum is not met, the donation amount will be granted after 18 months.
- Within your dashboard, the activity tab will allow you to view pledged donations by individual partners and download a report of the data.
- Within the activities page in your PayPal Giving Fund dashboard, you should be able to select ShoppingGives from the Programme dropdown.
- Clicking on each individual line item should give you the Donation date, Transaction ID, Gross Donation Amount, and Campaign Title.
- The activity page should give you the option to download this information as a CSV file which will include more detailed information than the Dashboard landing page offers.
