How can I allow donors to designate memorials for multiple people?

Melissa Lutgen

During our Hospice fundraiser, donors purchase "lights" on a tree. How can I set up our donation form to allow for multiple tribute names, instead of just one, since most of our donors memorialize 3 or 4 people?

Hi Melissa. The Tribute module lets donors make a gift in honor of an individual, but they can't add multiple individuals.



You have a couple options for how you might collect extra names however. You could re-label the comments field to ask for any additional tribute names, or you could include some gift attributes on the form to collect additional tribute names.

How do you set up these attributes for the form?

Hi Tanya. Visit the "Extras" tab on the donation form setup and find the gift attributes section. Press the "Add attribute" button then make your selection! Take a look at the tooltip next to the "Add attribute" button to learn about what types of attributes are integrated with Online Express.
