Who this template is for

In-Kind Donation is built for charities, foundations and community groups who need to sign people up and record consent and eligibility.

  • Charities, foundations and community groups working in non-profit & community.
  • Teams who need to sign people up and record consent and eligibility without writing code or paying for a custom build.
  • Anyone replacing volunteer and donor records living in spreadsheets with one structured record per enquiry.
  • Respondents are donors, volunteers and beneficiaries — the form asks them 28 questions across 2 screens.
  • Mobile-heavy audiences, thanks to the one-question-per-screen card layout.

Why this form is useful

It removes the cost of volunteer and donor records living in spreadsheets and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.

  • 16 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
  • It collects a verified email address so replies and confirmations land.
  • It captures a phone number for urgent follow-up.
  • It pins the request to a specific date.
  • It captures a full postal address.
  • It captures a numeric value you can filter and sort on.
  • Conditional logic hides 5 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.
  • Splitting the form across 2 pages keeps each screen short and shows respondents how much is left.

Questions about this shared form

How is this different from a donation form?

A donation form takes money. This accepts goods or services, with condition, logistics and a right to decline.

Can it be used for pro bono professional work?

Yes. The service section asks for hours, the type of work and whether the donor is qualified and insured.

Do you have to accept everything offered?

No, and the form says so plainly, which is what makes declining an unusable gift straightforward.

Does it produce a tax receipt?

It records the donor's own estimate and whether a receipt is wanted. Any tax treatment follows your local rules.

Yes. You can preview and test In-Kind Donation on this page without an account, and take a copy into your own HelloForms workspace on the free plan. There is nothing to install and no card required to publish it.
