Accounting Best Practices • Do NOT hold cash and/or checks for an extended time, turn in weekly. • Do process large amounts of cash as soon as possible. • Do take a large amount of coins and/or cash to the bank or a Coinstar location and have it converted into larger bills or cashier’s check. Attach receipt. • Do NOT route fundraiser donations through your personal account. • Do keep all donor contributions secure at all times. • Do attach a second pledge form to the initial pledge form if a donor has contributed to more than 5 charities and number each pledge form. (ex: 1 of 3, 2 of 3, 3 of 3)
