Data on donors
Each month, we send you details on all donations given to you in the previous month. This article explains the format of this report and what each column covers.
All those marked with * may have a null value in the report, either because the field is optional for the donor to fill out or because the donation isn't associated with any object of that type (e.g., a team or event).
