Have a special offering coming up on Sunday? Want to draw attention to an ongoing effort or cause? Incorporate your organization’s Givelify mobile giving app into your fundraising strategy.

Using the Givelify dashboard, you can create specific envelopes to appear on your place of worship’s Givelify profile. This allows donors to direct their gifts toward your special cause of choice.

These envelopes can last any time frame you choose. You can even set up an envelope for a specific fundraising event. Then you can help draw attention to said event by highlighting the envelope in your profile’s cover photo and ask donors to select the envelope while completing their gift.

To create a new giving envelope, visit www.givelify.com on your computer and log in to your organization’s account. Then follow these steps:

1. Click on Settings at the top right of your screen.
2. Click on the Envelopes tab.
3. Click the New Envelope button at the top right of your screen.
4. Fill out the form with the name of your envelope and a description.
   • If you want your donation envelope to only run for a certain period of time, enter your desired date range.
   • If you want to set a fundraising goal, click to turn the button to the on position and type the amount in the box provided.
5. Click on Create.

Re-Ordering Envelopes

If you want to re-order the envelopes as they appear in the app, hover your mouse cursor over the envelope name to reveal a four-pointed arrow. Click and drag the envelopes into the desired order.

Activating and Deactivating Envelopes

You can manually activate and deactivate envelopes so they do not appear in the giving app. Rather than deleting an envelope completely, you may simply wish to not use it for some period of time (such as a Christmas Giving envelope).

To activate or deactivate an envelope, click the toggle button beside Show In App.
