What's the difference between a general donation and an extended payment?

• General donations are payments made at will, for any amount of the donor's choosing.
• Extended payments are payments that get assigned to a specific family's balance, to reduce the amount the family is responsible for paying.
  • This allows third-parties like relatives, family friends, government agencies etc. to make contributions towards a family's camp fees using a secure portal.
  • Unlike general donations that can be made at will, extended payments must be initiated by an admin user through a "payment request."
