How to Enable Donations for Your Raffle

Raffle purchases aren't tax deductible but donations can be!

1. Make sure Donations are enabled on your fundraiser in the builder.

  • Under Donations > Donation Settings, make sure "Ask for an additional donation on purchase" is enabled

 

2. Set up Tax Receipting. For more on setting up tax receipts, view this article

  • From the builder, under Admin, select Tax Receipting
  • Select a tax receipt template and make any adjustments.
  • Press Save to confirm.

Please Note:

Tax receipts require all information from your organization's info/profile. Make sure all details here are complete to ensure receipts are generated.

 

3. Ensure your fundraiser name does not include "Raffle" "Lotto" or "50/50". 

  • From the builder, go to Page Design
  • Edit the fundraiser name to remove these terms.

Warning:

Tax receipts include your fundraiser's name so it is important that your title doesn't include "raffle", "lotto", or "50/50" to avoid red flags from CRA.
