Create Gift Message

The "CreateGift" message is sent from the Global Partner (GP) to the Global Ministry Center (GMC).

The "CreateGift" message is for an existing Constituent to send a gift to their sponsored child, their sponsored child’s family, or make a donation to Compassion for general child gifts and projects.

Once the sent "CreateGift" message has been processed by the GMC, a corresponding "GiftCreated" message will eventually be returned to the GP from the GMC. This is an asynchronous process.
