Body: <p>My organization is hosting a fundraising event at which the tickets are not expensive and participants can contribute an additional amount as well. How would you set this up? Currently I have a price list for the tickets, but I'm unsure how to do the write-in additional contribution. Linking to the donate page could be done, but isn't ideal. Thoughts? </p>
