Talking about amounts
When talking about the total amount of money, we often use the singular 'la recaudación' even if many people contributed.
Recaudación vs. Dinero
Mistake: “Recibimos mucho recaudación.”
Correction: Recibimos mucha recaudación; remember that it is a feminine naming word, and it refers to the total 'pot' of money, not individual coins.
