How to Use Text-to-Give:
1. Start Your Donation:
- Text the Number Provided by Your Church

Advanced Donation Options:
- Donating to Multiple Categories: To support multiple church causes in one go, split your donation between various funds by separating the amounts with a comma in your text message.
First-Time Donors:
- Setting Up Payment: If you're donating for the first time, you’ll receive a text link to securely set up your payment method. All future donations will then automatically use your most recently saved payment method.
