How-to: Finalize Your A-Thon

Confirm all A-Thon fundraising data is correct so final pledge amounts can be calculated and donors can be charged.

Finalizing your A-Thon allows us to calculate the final amount to charge your donors for their pledges based on each Participant's* and/or Team's* activity.

Before You Begin

Before finalizing your A-Thon, take a few moments to go through the following steps:

  1. Ensure your A-Thon end date has been reached. You won't be able to finalize A-Thon results until the A-Thon ends.
  2. Check that all write-in donations have been properly credited to the desired Participants and/or Teams. You may need to edit some donations to ensure the appropriate individuals are credited.

How-to: Credit a Write-In Donation

  1. If any donations were paid for by check, they will need to be marked as received to be included in the final amount raised. Note: Check donations are only allowed for one-time donations, not per-unit-of-activity pledges.

How-to: Mark Check Donations as Received

  1. Ensure all activity results are logged correctly for each Participant and/or Team. Note that activity results cannot be entered after you finalize your A-Thon.
