How-to: Log A-Thon Activity Progress

Enter A-Thon activity during your A-Thon or after it ends.

Whenever an Experience organizer or Participant logs activity progress on a Givebacks A-Thon, the amount raised will update automatically wherever it’s displayed on the Experience page, driving up excitement, friendly competition, and donations.

If your fundraiser experience doesn't match the descriptions below please click here to go to the appropriate help article.

The Givebacks system also uses this information to automatically calculate how much to charge each donor for their per-unit pledges when the A-Thon ends.

Givebacks offers two options for updating A-Thon activity progress. You can periodically log activity progress manually while the A-Thon is live or import activity results when the A-Thon ends.

Logging Progress Manually

Experience organizers can log participants’ progress on their behalf:

1. Go to app.memberhub.gives and log in.
2. Select Experiences from the left menu.
3. If you have chosen a list view, click on the Experience title. If you have chosen a grid view, click on the Experience image.
4. Under CAMPAIGN MANAGEMENT, select Enter Activity Results.
5. Click on ACTIONS in the upper right corner of the screen, then select Add Activity:
6. Enter the activity details, then select either Save & Close or Save & Add Another:

Participants can also log their own progress. To learn more, see this article: How do I log my activity

Import Results

Experience organizers can import activity results when the A-Thon is finished. We recommend downloading the spreadsheet before the A-Thon starts and using it to log progress as the A-Thon proceeds:

1. Go to app.memberhub.gives and log in.
2. Select Experiences from the left menu.
3. If you have chosen a list view, click on the Experience title. If you have chosen a grid view, click on the Experience image.
4. Under CAMPAIGN MANAGEMENT, select Enter Activity Results.
5. Click on ACTIONS in the upper right corner of the screen, then select Import Activity Results:
6. Click on the link to download the Activity Results Upload Template:
7. Fill out the spreadsheet. Here are some tips to help you out:
   • All columns are required.
   • Enter the First Name, Last Name, and Activity Name (e.g., Goal) exactly as it appears in the Experience.
   • Activity Date column entries should be formatted as MM/DD/YYYY.
   • Units Completed column entries should be formatted as a whole number greater than zero (e.g., 10). Decimal numbers won’t work.
8. Save your spreadsheet as a .csv file. Most spreadsheet programs (Google Sheets, Microsoft Excel, etc.) will allow you to do this.
9. Click on Select file to upload your spreadsheet:

*Exact wording may differ according to the Experience settings.
