Welcome to your organization's wishlist system! This powerful feature helps you communicate your needs to the community and track incoming donations.
The wishlist allows you to:
- Share your organization's most needed items with supporters
- Accept donations directly from your community
- Track donation progress in real-time
- Manage both public wishlist items and internal inventory needs
Understanding the Wishlist
Your wishlist serves as a bridge between your organization's needs and community support. Items you add can be made visible on your public organization page, where supporters can view what you need and contribute directly.
Key Benefits

- Efficiency: Reduce duplicate donations by tracking what's already been received
- Engagement: Build stronger community connections through direct support
- Organization: Keep track of all donations in one centralized location
