Q: What is a gift confirmation receipt and how does it differ from a regular tax receipt?
A: A “receipt” refers to any document issued by Sheena’s Place to confirm that we received something from another party.

Q: How does a PAD (Pre-Authorized Debit) work?
A:You (the Payor) make arrangements for PAD (also known as Direct Debit) payments from your bank account with the biller (Sheena’s Place). This agreement can be made through our web site, or over the telephone. In order to set up or change your PAD payment, we will require the following information: transit (branch) number, institution number and account number. The agreement specifies the amount, timing, frequency or event that will result in a PAD, as well as the account from which the funds are to be withdrawn.
