How to create & send Donation acknowledgment letters individually

Watch Video

You can print or email donor acknowledgement letters for an individual donor by following these steps:

Start by clicking on the Contacts icon in the toolbar.


Click on the Donations tab.

You have the option of generating Donation Acknowledge letters for a specific donation or for a contact’s Year-to-Date donations.


Sending Individual Donor Acknowledge for a Single Donation

Find the contact by typing their first or last name in the search box.


It is important to note that donations are grouped in MoneyMinder by calendar year for tax purposes. So, you may see donations on your list from a different Financial Year, because it falls in the calendar year you have selected.


Once you have found the specific donation for the donor click Compose Donation Acknowledgement Message.


A draft of the letter will appear in the Preview window.


You can edit the message by clicking the Edit Message tab.

Click the Preview Tab to see your changes.


Select either Save and Download PDF or Save and Send depending upon how you would like to deliver the letter.


Sending Individual Year-to-Date Donor Acknowledgements

You may find you need to send a letter for multiple donations all at once, either for tax purposes or otherwise.

Again, be mindful of the Calendar Year selection when sending this type of donation acknowledgement.


Find the contact to whom you wish to send the year-to-date acknowledgement letter.

Click on Compose Donation Acknowledgement Message (year-to-date). You will see the donor’s total giving for the year to the right.


A draft of the letter will appear in the Preview window.


You can edit the message by clicking the Edit Message tab.

Click the Preview tab to see your changes.

Select either Save and Download PDF or Save and Send depending upon how you would like to deliver the letter.
