• Write date at top of the transmittal sheet.

• Write amount of donor’s contribution in ‘new amount’ column.

• Check name and address for accuracy and make any changes directly on the transmittal.

• List any new donors on the blank transmittal sheets. Please get the complete mailing address for each new donor. Please write/print clearly. We do send a thank you note to every donor, so it is important that we have their correct mailing address.

• Write the name, email and phone number of who is submitting the donations and transmittal sheet. This will be the person contacted if we have any questions about the submission.

• Make a copy for yourself and mail a copy of the transmittal along with your checks by certified mail to:

**EACH TIME you send money, send along a new transmittal sheet with only those donations filled in to match the money.**
