Use **Add Interaction** > **Add Donation** on a contact to record a gift made by check, cash or any other way outside your donation page. Gifts made on your pages are added to the contact automatically.

## Record a donation

1. Open **Contacts** and select the contact.
2. Select **Add Interaction**, then **Add Donation**.
3. Enter the **Donation Amount**. It must be more than $0, or FundHero shows "Donation amount must be more than $0".
4. Check the **Date** of the gift.
5. For a check, optional: fill in **Check Number**, **Batch Number** and **Deposit Date**.
6. Optional: add **Notes**, and pick tags in **Search Tags** if your team has them. See [Tags](https://www.fundhero.com/help/tags/).
7. Select **Save**.

The donation appears on the timeline as "added a donation", with the amount and any check number, batch number and deposit date. It starts as needing thanks, so the contact shows up in the **Contacts Need Thanks** list until you select **Say thanks**.

## Edit or delete a donation

Select the three-dot menu on the donation card and choose **Edit** to change the amount, date, check details, notes or tags, or **Delete** to remove it. Online donations from your pages have the note "Online", and FundHero asks you to confirm before deleting one.

## Record many donations at once

To add a batch from a spreadsheet, see [Import donations](https://www.fundhero.com/help/import-donations/).
