What's that check number (optional) thing? This is us helping partners to send their gift soon! We want to encourage the partner to pull out their checkbook right then and there, so it's more likely that the check will go in the the mail the same day. But honestly? Gift Services won't be watching for it—if we receive a check with a different number we'll still take the gift! |

Check Donor Final Step: Print Your Mailing Slip
This feature is new and nifty. We provide a quick printable slip immediately for a check donor—it automatically adds your fund number and reminds them of the address. They print it and slip it in with their gift. Faster gifts, and less mistakes with gifts matched to the wrong account because of bad financial partner handwriting.
