1. Edit event
If you would like to make changes to an event, from the event’s administrative page select the Edit tab.
From the Edit tab you can update event details and close, open, or delete the event. Deleting an event is only possible if no contributions have been made for that event. This action cannot be undone.
You will receive an email for any modifications made to your event. If event details are modified after the event has been uploaded to C-SMART, use the details in this email to make the necessary changes to the event in C-SMART.
If you accidentally close an event before it has occurred, the event can be re-opened. Contact your Candidate Services liaison if you need to re-open an event.
To customize the contribution amounts for your event page, return to your main Contribute account page and update the amounts found under the Custom Amount Tool in the Tools tab.
Note: Updating the contribution amounts in this section will change the default amounts across all your campaign’s Contribute pages, including all open event pages
2. Manage and view events
Return to the Fundraising Events tab to view your events. Events can be sorted by Event Date and Time, Event Name, Status, and Total Contributions by clicking on each header.
Click on the gear icon and select View from the drop-down options to view the event page that will be shared with contributors. To return to the event’s administrative page, click the hyperlinked event name or click the gear icon and select Edit.
3. Review fundraising events and contributions
From the Contributions tab on the event’s administrative page, individual contributions can be sorted by Date and Time received, Name of contributor, and Amount contributed. From this page, you can also export the list of contributions received through this event page as a CSV file.
Like any other contribution received through Contribute, contributions made to events must be reported within the same disclosure period in which they are received and uploaded directly to C-SMART. Contributions made to events must also be claimed for match like any other eligible contribution.
Note: As with other contributions received in Contribute, Stripe processing fees are deducted from contributions received through fundraising event pages.
