Sponsor Benefits as Premiums?

 

Hello Development gurus,

My org is embarking on integrating our Development activities into Tess. On of our big development vectors is the recording and reporting on benefits that our sponsors and donors receive. Such benefits would be things like having their logo on our website, getting some signed books, private dinners etc.

I have been imagining that we could record these as Premiums in the original contribution. This sounds like a good approach, as the 'Availability Date' could be the the date when the benefit is planned to be given to the sponsor/partner, and the ship date could be the date the benefit was actually delivered.

Has anyone else explored this, or met any challenges with this?

Best,

Nicholas

  • The trick to this as I see it is having these premiums on all your applicable appeals --- that is if you want them included as part of the non-deductible for receipting purposes.   If you don’t then you could just add manually
