Throughout the year, KidSpirit will receive gift certificate donation requests from various organizations for charity events. To process these requests:
Go to the gift certificate log on the Brain (Finances>Donations>Gift Certificates). Scroll through this and find the following information:
Whether we have donated to this organization/ event before
How much we donated to the previous event(s)
Whether the gift certificates from the event were actually used
Compile this information and then take the request to Karen. She will decide whether to donate and what to donate. Once she has decided, make sure to follow up with the organization who made the request.
Once the request has been processed, the gift certificates much actually be made and sent to the group requesting them. To print the gift certificates:
Go to the Brain and find the template for the type of gift certificate that is desired under Marketing>Gift Certificates Templates
Update the expiration date and maximum value
Print double sided in color on cardstock paper
Have Karen sign or stamp her signature
Open up the KidSpirit Certificate Log (Brain>Finance>Gift Certificates). Enter the following:
Type (What it is for, ex. 2 week SDC session)
Number (and then write number on front, top, right side of gift certificate)
Who (Where certificate is being handed out)
