Allowable Donation Types

The following types of donations are allowed to be counted in your Giving Day totals.

Online donations made through the givelocalnrv.org website. The website accepts a variety of payment methods.

Three types of offline donations:

Cash
Checks
Wire transfers over $1,000

Checks must be received by your organization AND dated between June 1 and June 25 at noon. Anything under $1,000 is automatically approved. If the gift is over $1,000, we will ask to see a copy of the whole front of the check verify the details (with account information blacked out or hidden), so please keep records!

Wire transfers that are over $1,000 are accepted for this event as long as they are received between June 1 and June 25 at noon. A wire transfer is a secure transaction made between two bank accounts. We only accept wire transfers from your donor's bank account to your organization’s bank account (this does not include Venmo, Paypal, etc. donations to your bank account).

What we need to confirm a wire transfer:
- We need an email from your donor confirming their intention with the gift. It can simply say: “I am initiating a wire transfer donation in the amount of $XX to ORGANIZATION NAME for their GiveLocalNRV Giving Day fundraiser.”
- We need to see a screenshot of the transaction in your bank account or other documentation showing when the donation posted to your account.
