To activate the “Allow donors to dedicate their donations” link on Core Profiles

  1. Log in to the Nonprofit Admin Portal.
  2. Under "Edit Your Nonprofit's Core Profile," click the "Basic Information" button.
  3. Scroll down to "Allow donors to dedicate their donations" and check the box.
  4. Click "Save" at the bottom of the page. The “Dedicate This Gift” link will now appear on your campaign page just above the "Continue" (donate) button.
  5. You can follow the same process to uncheck the box at any time.

For Campaign Pages

  1. Log in to the Nonprofit Admin Portal and click the “Campaign Pages” link in the left-hand navigation bar.
  2. Select the Campaign Page on which you would like to add the dedication functionality. Be sure to look within the “Active” tab of current Campaign Pages. If needed, use the search tool to pull up results only within that tab. Search results will include the desired term, whether it is all or part of a word or phrase in the campaign name or slug.
  3. Click the “Manage” button to the right of the Campaign Page link.
  4. In the "Edit Campaign Page" section, click the "Campaign Name, Description, and Goal" link.
  5. Scroll down to "Allow donors to dedicate their donations" and check the box.
  6. Click "Save" at the bottom of the page.
  7. The “Dedicate This Gift” link will now appear on your campaign page just above the "Continue" (donate) button.
  8. You can follow the same process to uncheck the box at any time.

A note about payment forms

Give Lively has two generations of payment forms in use. Your choice of features will dictate which form appears. At present, the ability to give in honor or in memory of someone is supported by both generations of payment forms. Activation of this feature alongside the others on this list may trigger the second-generation payment form. Any combination of features beyond those detailed on the list will continue to see use of the first-generation form.

IMPORTANT: Both generations of payment forms guide donors through very similar giving experiences and there is no reason a nonprofit should favor one payment form over the other. Over the next few months, the new payment form will become the standard for all Give Lively donation pages. Learn more here.
