Any time that you donate through PayPal, the system will send you an email to confirm the transaction. As a reminder, if you ever receive a confirmation email for a PayPal transaction you did not make, alert PayPal right away, and they will launch an investigation. To learn more about accessing your payment activity, visit PayPal’s Help Center.
