Donating FAQs

Your commitment is a “faith promise” between you and the Lord, and so we will not send you a bill.

Any cash gifts (check, money order or credit card) or non-cash gifts (which could include stocks, bonds, mutual funds, securities, real estate and insurance) to World Team that are designated for ministry purposes are tax-deductible, as allowed by law. World Team is a 501(c)3 organization (EIN 59-1759927).

Receipting of funds contributed to World Team is limited to board-approved missionaries and projects. We do honor gift designations. 

Your receipt will reflect your designation. Gifts for a project will be used with the understanding that in the event the project is over-funded or unable to be completed for reasons beyond our control, gifts will be used for similar, board-approved projects.

Gifts are processed within two or three business days, and a receipt will be mailed to you along with a return envelope. Each receipt has a detachable bottom portion that you may send in with your next contribution. Your receipt will provide you with a year-to-date total of your giving and indicate whether gifts were tax-deductible or not, in accordance with federal tax laws.

Recurring credit card and EFT gifts will be receipted in January for the previous year’s donations.

Please contact World Team and we will send you a duplicate receipt. For many people the receipt is a reminder for their next contribution. If the receipt is lost in the mail, our line of communication with you could be broken.

The receipt you receive after your last gift of the year serves as your year-end receipt for tax purposes. The box in the upper right corner indicates your year-to-date giving.

If you are an EFT or monthly credit card donor, the receipt you receive in early January will provide you with your year-to-date giving and can be used for tax purposes.
