How long will it take for donations to be added to my fundraising page?
Donations made via credit card on the Friends of Dogs Inc fundraising website will appear in real time. For donations mailed to Dogs Inc, once we receive them, we kindly ask for 14 business days to apply the funds to your page.
If I participate in a matching campaign, will I get fundraising credit for the matched amount?
You will receive fundraising credit only for the amount you raised. The matched amount will support the mission of Dogs Inc but cannot be counted toward your fundraising total.
I don't see the answer to my donation related question.
Well, we can't have that! Send an email to fundraising@dogsinc.org and we would be happy to address your question.
