    We send them one with the first commitment and then they get an end of year letter. Unless they request to get one every time but I have just one donor that wants them like that.

Do you send them a thank you/acknowledgement letter every time they donate or just at the end of the quarter/year? Or is it done per donor request? We are just trying to figure out the best practice.

    Hi Sue, For regular/monthly donors, we send them a thank you/acknowledgement with their first gift and then reach out to them personally to ask how often they'd like to receive future acknowledgements. Our default it to send one after every gift, but a lot of the recurring donors have asked to only receive one at the end of the year.

    We do it the same way - A letter thanking the donor for setting up the recurring gift and then a letter at the end of each calendar year so they have the receipt details they may need.
