Can someone help me with an error posted below? The program runs, but I'm getting an error regarding my main when display donations is called. How can i fix this so it runs? Does it have to do with a syntax error? It's my first time working with arrays so I welcome feedback for good habits. Thanks!
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 6
