If you scroll down on the work posting page, you should see the prompt "Does this fulfill a challenge assignment". Next to this, you should already have Fandom5K listed with the name of your recipient, and this should be selected automatically. As long as your assignment is checked, your gift should be added to the exchange collection and gifted to your recipient, and it will be hidden until the collection is revealed.
If you have more detailed questions or this doesn't work for you, please email me at fandom5kmod@gmail.com, and we can work it out directly.
