Find people who did not pledge

Occasionally, individuals may donate to a "Pledge" fund without formally communicating their intended pledge amount. In such cases, churches may wish to generate reports identifying those who have contributed to the fund but haven't established an official pledge. Alternatively, it may be useful to search the database to identify individuals who haven't pledged to a particular campaign at all.
