GC GO Trip Planning: Quick Reference Guide

Overview

GC GO Trip Planning supports gift officers with organizing and executing in-person (and virtual) visits with donors and prospects.

1. Accessing Trip Planning

• Go to GC Gift Officer (GC GO)
• Navigate to “Trip Planner” on the left hand side navigation bar to view, create, or manage trips

2. Creating & Editing a Trip

• Click “Create Trip”
• Enter trip details: Name, start and end dates, description, location (free text in v1), and related info
• Trips can be edited or deleted later

3. Adding and Managing Visits

• Use the “Search Constituents” section to find and add prospective donors or contacts by name or by filter criteria. You can also select constituents from an updated list
• Click the “Add Visit” button to add the constituent to the trip. Mark each visit as “Tentative,” “Confirmed,” or “Declined”
• The “Tentative Visits” tab displays all the constituents tagged for the visit but not yet confirmed
• When in the “Tentative Visits” tab, move constituents between statuses as outreach progresses by clicking on their name and updating the status
• Remove or adjust tentative/confirmed visits anytime

4. Building Your Itinerary

• The “My Itinerary” tab displays all confirmed visits
• Add non-visit events (meetings, travel time, breaks)
• Itinerary shows title, start/end date, location, and event details
• You can email constituents directly from within GC GO
• Modify or delete any itinerary item as plans change

5. Export & Collaboration

• Share itineraries easily with colleagues via export options
• School-level views let admins see all trips and filter by gift officer under Schoolwide Data
• GC GO supports collaborative trip planning, allowing multiple officers to co-plan and manage trips by adding additional gift officers as secondary staff
