* "In-hand” means that you have received the support. This can be that they have given you their first check and you literally have it in your possession, that they’ve signed up for EFT, or that HQ has received their first month’s gift.
** Pledged means that a partner has verbally communicated a specific amount of support to you, but they have not given it to you, set up EFT or sent in their first check to HQ. '''
