Stages can be customized simply by changing the stage name. To change the stage name, click into the box and change the name of the stage.

You can also add a new stage by clicking 'Add Stage'. Simply enter the new stage name in the field that appears.

Finally, you can delete a stage by clicking Delete.

Note: after assigning donors to stages, the number of donors assigned to each stage will be displayed. You will not be able to delete a stage that has donors assigned.
