Tithing & Giving Tracker

A blank giving record book for a household that gives — by standing order, at the door, or when a need shows up — and wants one honest book that holds every gift in the giver’s own words. No teaching, no targets, no math done for you. Every page is a record you fill in yourself: the date you noted it, who or what the gift went to in your own words, and the amount you write yourself.

This is a planning tool, not financial advice — it does not tell you how much to give, where to give, or what anyone’s giving should look like; you write every entry in your own words and write every amount yourself.

Three record books keep the kinds of giving apart, because a household rarely gives in one way: a giving record for the gifts as they happen, a recurring gifts record for the ones set up to repeat, and a gifts of goods record for the things given rather than money. Labeled example rows on the first page of each record show the shape of an entry; every value on them is a placeholder you replace with your own. A records-at-a-glance index tallies the record books, and a look-back page asks, in your words, what kind of giving the year held. There are no printed schedules to keep and no figures to hit — a missed week is a blank line, never a shortfall. Print fresh record pages from the file any time. Your records are personal, so the book keeps itself private: there is no field anywhere for an account, card number, password or login.

Not the same shelf as its neighbours: the Charitable Donation Tracker (P-245) records gifts made to charities for your own files; this tracker is the wider book, covering every kind of giving a household does. Looking for business giving and moving costs instead? The Moving Budget Planner (P-259) files those in a different book, on purpose.
