In CiviContribute, the term contribution refers to any financial transaction or payment taking place in the system, such as a donation, an event fee payment or membership dues, as well as in-kind contributions. These different categories of payment are referred to as financial types and new types can be added to further customize CiviContribute to fit your organization’s financial requirements.

Learn how to customize CiviContribute, record and manage contributions and report on your financial data using the CiviContribute module.

For our friends in Europe and Malaysia, Cividesk is coming to you so to take advantage of this opportunity to spend some time with us in person and get the answers to your questions regarding CiviCRM.

Are you involved with a nonprofit organization that would like to track donors, manage events, send emailing campaigns, manage membership, fundraising, generate reports and much more all in the same database? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then you need to join us at the CiviCRM MeetUp in Paris, France (en français) or Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia!

Your organization has a solid membership base, but you want to retain members and help it grow, so how can CiviCRM help you do that?

The membership renewal process can be daunting, but learning how to use CiviMember, as well as features from CiviCampaign and other components in CiviCRM, can make it easier to reach out to current members, streamline the on-line renewal process, and track your progress.

Is your CiviCRM database personalized to your organization's needs, or are you continuing to use the default fields in CiviCRM? Make the most of your database and learn how to gather and store custom data in CiviCRM in order to improve communication with your constituents and better accomplish the goals of your non-profit.

Are you using CiviEvent and want to allow your event participants to register multiple guests but have had trouble with duplicates being created or overwriting contact records after choosing this option when configuring on-line registration?

In the training session, “Managing your Special Events Effectively in CiviCRM”, I’ll demonstrate best practices to avoid this problem when additional registrants don’t provide an email address. We’ll also look at the best way to configure a price set to function with on-line registration that allows for registering multiple guests.  

Discover all of the different features in CiviContribute during this two-hour class “Manage your Donations, Sponsorships and Other Financial Contributions”** designed for new users. We will explore the best ways to manage your contributions through the creation of financial types customized for your organization. You will also learn how to manually add and search for donations in CiviCRM and to create groups to facilitate your outreach activities.
