Add a Child

You can create records to track children you want to make available to interested sponsors. For example, you can enter personal information such as name and location for a child. The child is saved in your database and available to be matched with a sponsor.

When creating a child record, you assign the child to a specific Sponsorship program, such as “Children 0-5” and “Children 6-10.” This allows you to better match your sponsors’ needs and track your assignments.

The child group must exist in your system before you can add a child. For information about groups, refer toSponsorship Opportunity Groups.

Note: Please note that gender data for sponsorship child records are stored in a different data table and these records are not also constituent records in Blackbaud CRM. Options available may therefor differ from those available on constituent records.
