Honor Cards

Honor Cards are complimentary cards donors can send to friends and family to let them know they have made a gift in their name. These cards can be sent through email, shipped in the mail or printed at home. Every year, new Honor Card styles are created and updated on the site. Learn how to update cards in the CMS so donors can view the latest styles.

Image
image form

First, select an image using the ‘Select Image’ button. This will pull up the Image/File Manager pop up window. From here, you can upload an image or select an existing image to use. For more information on how to use the Image/File Manager and best practices, visit the Media Manager section.


Focal Point

A focal point can be selected by clicking anywhere on the image. This tells the site where to keep focus on the image if the window is resized and the image is moved/resized for responsiveness.

 
Focal Point Zoom

Our tech on the site can zoom into an image when it’s displayed. Note: This doesn’t have to be selected and can usually be left blank.

 
Additional Parameter

This can be left blank.

 
Alternate Text

To adhere to search engine optimization (SEO) best practices, it’s important to put a brief description of the image here. This is used as an invisible description which is read aloud to blind users on a screen reader. Please keep the explanation to 160 characters or less. Note: This section is required in order for an image to show.
