Donor Wall Setup Instructions
1. Definition of the categories/levels - the name and minimum donation amount for each level/category
2. A spreadsheet file containing the list of donors, with the following columns:
- Date (optional). Only if you want HiRaiser to record the actual date of the donations you are uploading, usually for the purpose of ordering them by date or general record-keeping. Otherwise, you can leave this blank and the system will use the upload date/time.
Last Name* (required). In its own separate field.
First Name* (required). In its own separate field.
Amount* (required). The numerical amount of the donation, without any symbols or text.
Email (recommended). Not required but recommended for better tracking of multiple donations from the same donor.
Display Last Name (optional). If the way the last name should be publicly displayed is different from the actual name.
Display First Name (optional). If the way the first name should be publicly displayed is different from the actual name.
Sort by Name (optional). Sometimes we need to finesse the ordering using this field, in the case of a couple with different last names or a fund/organization name. This field determines what will be used for the alphabetical ordering of this donation. (The automatic default ordering is LastName FirsName.)
Anonymous (optional). If this donor wishes their donation to be anonymous (i.e., no name displayed publicly), write “Y” in this field. Otherwise, leave blank.
