How much money should I raise?
All MuckRuckers must turn in at least $100 in donations by August 4.
What is the fundraising deadline to be eligible for fundraising clubs?
The deadline is September 30. 2011 fundraising club members will receive their club benefits at the 2012 event.
What if my donors need a receipt?
Everyone who make an online donation will receive an e-mail confirmation receipt for tax purposes. Donors who give $100 or more will receive a thank you letter and receipt by mail. If you have a cash donor who needs a receipt, download it here.
In addition to a letter or receipt, the IRS will accept the following as proof of a charitable donation: a canceled check, bank or credit union statement, or a credit card statement.
What if a donor wrote a check out to the team or my name?
If you receive a check payable to your team, just write "NMSS" above. If it's made out to you, please endorse the check payable to the National MS Society.
My fundraising total in my Participant Center doesn't match what I know I turned in.
We may experience a 3-4 week delay entering donations during peak event times (April-July). Your total may be inflated if you entered donations as offline gifts; please go to the "My Progress" section and delete the "Unconfirmed" versions of duplicate gifts.
I turned in my donations at the event but I don't see them in my Participant Center total yet.
It may take as long as four weeks for all of your donations to be credited to your Participant Center. If you'd like to see your donations right away, please ask your supporters to donate online or mail your donations to the Colorado-Wyoming Chapter before the event weekend.
