Why This Matters
Sharing how you’ve used your funds:
- Helps ASF advocate for more funding opportunities.
- Helps ASF identify insights which can be reported to the Sports and Philanthropic communities.
- Ensures ASF meets regulatory requirements.
Completing the Survey
- The survey contains a few short questions about how grants for your campaign(s) were utilized and what outcomes were created.
- You’ll have 90 days to complete the survey.
- There’s no word limit, but most responses are under 200 words.
- The survey does not always autosave, so we recommend preparing your answers in a Word document first.

Please include "Impact Report + Campaign Name" in the subject of your email.

Want to Change who can Access the Impact Report Survey?
- Only authorised representatives (Super Users and Fundraising Managers) of the club or fundraiser can add contacts for the next survey period.
- If the current contact is no longer involved, you can add additional contacts in the Account Section of the platform.
Can I Save and Return Later?
- The survey does always not autosave your responses.
- We recommend preparing your answers in a Word document and copying them into the form when ready.
How Can I Check If the Impact Report Survey has Already Been Completed For a Campaign?
- Log in to the ASF Fundraising Platform and navigate to the Impact Reports section.
- If your report is marked "Completed", no further action is required.
- If it's marked "Outstanding" you’ll need to complete it.
- If it is marked as "Unspent", the amount will be carried over to the next Impact Report period.
What If I Haven’t Spent the Funds Yet?
No problem. If the funds haven’t been used yet:
- Select “No” for the question: “Have all the funds been used?”
- You’ll receive the survey again in the next quarter when you’re ready to report.
For long-term or capital investments (e.g. endowments), report the funds as being spent and explain how the funds are being invested and how the income is used.
What Happens If I Don’t Complete the Survey?
Completing the Impact Report is a requirement of your ASF grant agreement. Failing to submit may result in:
- Future audits
- Suspension of your fundraising account
