Split Fund Giving Comes to Giving Experiences

New
       Mike Young

Give donors more choice over where their gift makes an impact with a simple, modern way to support one or multiple funds in a single donation.

  • Support multiple funds in one donation — Donors choose the funds they care about and decide exactly how much they'd like to give to each.
  • Customize every fund — Add images, labels, descriptions, and individual DonorPerfect coding for each fund.
  • Support recurring Split Fund giving — Create separate recurring plans for each fund, giving donors more flexibility to manage their ongoing support.
  • Built for DonorPerfect — Each fund syncs as its own DonorPerfect gift using its configured coding, with support for recurring pledges and DonorPerfect Split Gifts.

A New Way to Browse Impact Giving

Improvement
       Mike Young

  • Choose between Catalog and Carousel — Use the new scrollable Catalog experience or the existing swipe-based Carousel to match your campaign.
  • Make more Impact opportunities easier to explore — Catalog lets donors browse multiple Impact Items together instead of viewing them one at a time.
  • Build a gift as you browse — Donors can choose multiple Impact Items, adjust quantities, and see their donation total update as they go.
  • Start with Catalog by default — New Impact Giving Experiences use Catalog by default, with the flexibility to switch to Carousel at any time.
