I got asked this question by the YW Leader and I am not sure how to respond-

"I had someone ask this question about paying for camp and I didn’t know the answer but I said I would ask. :) Is there a way this can be done easily for those that want to pay electronically?

Can we pay the $40 on an electronic tithing slip or do we need to fill out a paper one and submit it? I wasn't sure if there was a way to mark it as YW Camp electronically. Do you know?"



Has anyone run into this yet?

Thank You!

Camp payments (and any other Authorized Member Financed Activity payments) cannot be made online. They have to done via check or cash given to the bishopric.

From the Donations FAQ:
Consistent with Church policy, our ward may have a fundraising activity to raise money for youth activities such as Young Women or Aaronic Priesthood quorum camps. Can this money be donated online?

No, contributions made for fundraising activities are not considered donations but are considered a payment for goods or services and cannot be completed online. They are similar to paying for the cost of craft projects that are part of a Relief Society activity. They must be done through your local ward or branch.

Other category on donation slip for YM/YW camp

HI,

I have had a couple members recently ask me how they can enter their donation, for example for YW/YM camps, online and the "Other" category only has "Book of Mormon" and "Temple Construction" as options - is there any way a member can enter a donation for something other than these 2 that would be "other" on the online donation slip?

Thank you,

Happy Saturday!

:D
