We have disabled the feature of entering offline donations from Fundraising Portals this year to better streamline the post-Walk reconciliation process and get your totals and recognition incentives to you sooner.

We know that participants get excited to see their thermometers grow, and it is a useful tool to encourage your network to donate and get you to your goal. In order to have your thermometer updated, please submit your offline pledges to our office as soon as you receive them.  Once they have been confirmed as received, your thermometer will be updated to reflect your current total.

With the change to our new fundraising system, you can no longer enter offline donations on behalf of someone else using your credit card.  According to CRA regulations, the tax receipt for online donations must be connected to the credit card of the donor, so there is no longer an option to enter separate donor and billing information.

If you have already tried to put through a donation on someone’s behalf using your credit card, please verify that your account information is still correct.  If your account information now shows your donor’s details instead of your own, please reach out to us right away at 1-888-822-8467 or walk@mscanada.ca.

If you receive offline funds (cash/cheques), please send them to us in one of the following ways:
