Download these templates as .docx files and customize them for your organization:

- [Acknowledgment Receipt Template](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1IaWCmwg65t46tZe7eIdUueFZajV7rume05mg4XU-YPs/edit?usp=drive_link)
- [Donor Tax Summary Receipt Template](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zvnmOinpFWpTtM5LAXybEkokoohvXfcsTO-Oee0A2YQ/edit?usp=drive_link)

Customize these aspects of the templates:

- Logo
- All currency symbols
- Tax year (for the Donor Tax Summary Receipt template)
- Complimentary close
- Organizational signature block

For organizations that accept multiple currencies, create templates for each currency that you accept. When you generate the batch, you can filter the batch for the currency that's used in the template. If you have a custom field on the Gift Transaction object for currency type, you can add that field to the template so that the correct currency for each gift is printed on the acknowledgment.

Include all the Gift Transaction fields that hold the data that you want to include in the acknowledgment letter in the template. Acknowledgment generation supports these fields.

Account ("Donor") object

- BillingCity, BillingCountry, BillingPostalCode, BillingState, BillingStreet
- FirstName
- LastName
- Name
- PersonMailingCity, PersonMailingCountry, PersonMailingPostalCode, PersonMailingState, PersonMailingStreet, PersonMailingTitle

Gift Commitment object (Multiple gift commitments can be related to a donor.)

- EffectiveStartDate
