Is my donation tax-deductible?

Upon the close of each calendar year, Adventures sends donors an annual giving statement confirming tax deductibility in the U.S.

Deductibility varies for other countries outside the U.S. and therefore it is the responsibility of any international donor to consult with their tax advisor as to the deductibility of their donation. Adventures is not incorporated in any country other than the U.S.

Is my donation refundable or transferrable?

As a non-profit 501(c) (3) organization, the IRS regulations require that all tax-deductible contributions must be irrevocable and that any such organization must demonstrate full discretion and control of the donations. These regulations for Adventures in Missions are stated more fully in our Policies and Principles for Tax Deductible Donations.

I’m not sure how to designate my gift – can you help?

We suggest that you give to the General Ministry Fund. This allows Adventures to use your gift where it is most needed. Your gift to this fund enables a quick response as ministry opportunities unfold.

Please feel free to call or e-mail the Donor Relations Team if you would like further assistance or more information about other opportunities.

Where do I go to give for the credit of a specific person?

Visit our giving page, from there you can search for a specific trip participant or staff member.

Gifts may not be restricted for the benefit of a specific person, but if you give to an activity or purpose for which an individual is raising funds, that person will be considered preferred and thereby credited with the funds raised and allowed to participate in carrying out the applicable activity. Please see our policies for more information.

What does it mean that staff or participants “raise support” or that they are performing deputized fundraising?

Staff and participants appeal to their family, friends and communities on behalf of Adventures to provide the necessary resources for fulfilling their work, trip or project with Adventures in Missions. Gifts are given directly to the organization, allowing them to be tax-deductible.

What accountability is in place to ensure the integrity of Adventures In Missions?

Adventures is governed by a Board of Directors that meets to review the organization and its ministry. In addition, Adventures is a long-time member in good standing with the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability. We believe in transparency and make our most recent audited available on request.

Is there a maximum amount for online donations?

My company offers matching gifts – how do these get processed?

We are happy to verify gifts and complete any paperwork required by matching gift companies. Please be aware that we have no control over eligibility regulations and cannot guarantee that any gift will be matched or the date the matching gift will be received.

Will Adventures accept a gift for a third party?

Adventures cannot accept financial or non-financial contributions of any amount for third party organizations or individuals, nor can Adventures act as an intermediary for another organization in dispensing funds. Adventures cannot accept responsibility for administering or distributing such funds, or issue a receipt to the donor.
