You can also include any custom information you’d like by editing the dedication system email content. Here are the steps for activating the dedication notification and editing its default content.

What Donors See
If a donor dedicates a donation, the following will display during the event donation process:
The message they enter here will be displayed along with any default content you add in the dedication system email.
Editing the Default Content of Dedication Notifications
If you’d like to edit the default content that gets sent out with the dedication notification, you can do that in the System Emails section of your control panel, which is located with Share Campaign.
Scroll down to Other System Emails.
Please note: This section will only appear if you've enabled the Dedication Notification.
You have the same editing capabilities here as you do for your other system emails.
The %DedicationMessage% tag should not be removed. The tag populates with the message donors enter on the public-facing form. You can move it to a different location in the body of the email receipt, but if you remove it, no message from the donor will be displayed.
