Wishlists and in-kind

Ask for exactly what you need. Know what arrived.

Publish a wishlist, share the link, and supporters pledge the items you asked for with a drop-off time. When the items arrive, mark them received and the receipt goes out.

What happens to a donated item, from wish to shelf?

Inventory is baked in: every wishlist feeds it, so the shelf and the list always match. Running a pantry or a community kitchen? See food pantries and kitchens.

  1. 1

    List it

    • List what you need

      Items with quantities, a picture, a link and where to drop them off.

  2. 2

    Pledged

    • Supporters pledge

      They pick an item and quantity, and choose a drop-off date and time.

    • Pledged

      What donors promised, with the drop-off date and time they picked.

  3. 3

    Received

    • Mark it received

      Record what actually arrived; Donorly keeps pledged and received apart.

    • Received

      What actually arrived, checked in by your team, with a receipt to the donor.

  4. 4

    On the shelf

    • Receipt and inventory

      The donor gets a receipt, and the items count toward what you have on hand.

    • On hand

      What's on the shelf right now, item by item.

    • Given out

      What went out to families, classrooms or programs, and how much of each list was filled.

As many lists as you have needs.

Make a wishlist per program, per site or per classroom. Each has its own public page, so a teacher can share their room's list and a pantry can share its shelf.

  • Every pledge creates or updates the supporter's record in your CRM.
  • In-kind gifts carry an estimated value, so your records show what the goods were worth.
  • Inventory tracks what's on hand, what you gave out and how much of each list was filled.
