# Managing Church Donations
## Manage your church's donations as an admin within illume's Giving product.
### Step 1: Open the Giving Section
Select **Giving** from the main navigation to view your church’s giving information.
### Step 2: View All Donations
To see all donations, select **Donations**.
On this screen you can view each donation’s date, donor, amount, fund, source, status, and receipt number. If a payment failed, a failure reason will also be displayed.
### Step 3: Download Giving History
To download your giving history, select **Download**.
Choose the date range you would like to export.
The report will download to your computer as a CSV file.
### Step 4: Filter and Clear Donation Results
You can filter your donations list by various criteria.
Choose filters such as source, status, fund, and date range. If needed, select the option to clear all filters at once to reset the list.
### Step 5: View and Cancel Recurring Giving
To see recurring gifts, select the **Recurring** tab.
Here you can view the frequency of each recurring gift, the amount, the fund, and the date of the next scheduled gift. To cancel a recurring gift, select **Cancel** and then confirm your choice.
You will also see a badge indicating if a recurring gift is being given to an inactive fund.
### Step 6: Access Individual Giving from Community Profiles
To view giving for a specific person, go to **Community** and select **People**.
Then click **Manage**.
Click on their profile.
Open the **Giving** tab to view that person’s individual giving. Here you can see all of their donations, their recurring donations, as well as their statements.
### Step 7: Edit or Cancel a Recurring Donation from a Profile
From the individual’s profile, you can manage their recurring donations. To change a recurring gift, select **Edit**.
You can update which fund the gift is given to, modify the amounts, or add an additional fund. If you would like to cancel the recurring gift instead, select **Cancel** and confirm your choice.
