💡

About this template

Every donor relationship starts as a card somewhere — event sign-in, an email thread, a notebook. This form registers each donor once, in one clean shape: identity, contact, what they care about, how they want to be reached, and the fields your CRM actually imports. The archive stays yours: export any time, dedupe with confidence, and walk into renewal conversations knowing who gives, why, and how they said to talk to them.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is a donor record different from a donation record?
A donation record logs each gift that happened; a donor record holds who the person is, their interests and contact preferences. Many gifts, one profile — they join on the donor ID field.
Is this the same as the monthly giving form?
No — the monthly-giving form captures recurring-gift intent; this one registers the supporter behind every gift, first.
What about data protection?
Collect only what your relationship needs, keep the consent tick with the record, and let people correct or leave — the export and workspace access support both.
Is it free to use?
Yes. Copy it into your FormLM workspace and map fields to your CRM once.
Who updates stale records?
Give each donor an owner on the entry; owners refresh at contact, and the register dates show drift.
Can we import the CSV anywhere?
Exports are plain columns — test against your CRM once, then reuse the shape forever.
