Steps in the Donation Process
 STEPS IN THE DONATION PROCESS
|
STEP 1 - INITIAL STEP FOR ALL DONATED ITEMS
Donors who wish to contribute items should contact the Denver Public Schools Office of Volunteer Services. The Volunteer Office will send a Donation Verification Form to the donor, to document the donation for tax and reporting purposes. |

STEP 2 - CLEARANCE OF FIXED ASSETS
If the items are fixed assets, they must be cleared by the Office of Volunteer Services in order to be installed or serviced by the DPS Department of Technology Services (DoTs). Fixed assets include computer equipment, audio-visual equipment, and food service appliances. Items will be cleared by telephone, by e-mail, or by personal inspection. Once an item has been cleared for acceptance, the donor will be notified that the item can be accepted. |

STEP 3 - ASSIGNING ITEMS TO RECIPIENTS
If an item has no recipient, it will be made available to all schools and departments. Items will be assigned on a first-come, first-served basis to requesting schools or departments. |

STEP 4 - ACCEPTANCE OF DONATED ASSETS
Once an item has been accepted, the recipient must make arrangements with the donor to transport the item. If the donation is a fixed asset, it must be bar-coded before it can be serviced by DoTs. Computer and audio-visual donations should be transported to the DPS Warehouse for bar coding. Appliance donations may be transported to the receiving school and bar-coded on site. |
