Good evening!

This is my first time participating in The Weekend, and I'm very excited about it all.  I have a question about Fundraising.

When I host an event, such as a Charity Yard Sale as an example, which includes me collecting cash from multiple people -- what do I do?  Do we add up the total, and then decide how to split it amongst the team, and then one of us deposits the money as a donation using our credit card or cheque, and we just don't take a tax receipt?

I'm unclear on what to do with cash donations/spare change collections/etc, etc.  It doesn't seem as clear as when you just canvas individuals for online or paper direct, personal donations.

Thanks for any explanation you can provide!  I've never done a charity walk that wasn't just done by collecting pledges in an envelope, haha.
