General Tax Information, Incorporation, Gifts in Kind

 Donations made to Adventures in Missions are tax deductible based on the policies and principles located at www.adventures.org/policies.  Please contact your tax advisor for more information.

 

  1. We do not accept cash donations.

  2. Donating by Check

  • Checks must be made payable to Adventures in Missions.

    My complete first and last name OR my Appeal ID MUST be written on the memo line of all checks. My Appeal ID can be found on my Fundraising Card and is usually a combination of my first and last name (ex:  FERGUSONJOSEPH).

  • Checks must be mailed to:

    Adventures in Missions

    PO Box 742570

    Atlanta, GA 30374-2570

  • Do NOT send checks to the Adventures headquarters located in Gainesville, GA. 

  • Do NOT post date checks.  If a post dated check is sent in, it will be processed.  If there are insufficient funds in the account both Adventures and the donor will be charged a fee from the bank.

  • Please do not put multiple checks in the same envelope unless there is a support card (located on your profile) attached to each card.  If there is only one card in the envelope, all of the checks will be associated with that card/donor. 

  • Checks may take up to two weeks to be processed.

  • It is BEST if you send in a Fundraising/Support card with each donation.

  • If a check is written out to a participant rather than to Adventures in Missions, these checks cannot be processed and will be returned.

  1. Money Orders

  • Money orders are an acceptable method of payment for a donation.

  • All of the statements about giving via check also apply to money orders.  Refer to item 2 if you have any further questions.  

  • You must provide all applicable information in order to receive acknowledgement for their gift.

  1. Donating Online

  • You can donate online through my blog. Click the “support me” tab

  • Online donations by credit/debit card will be subject to a 3% processing fee.  Bank drafts will be subject to a 2% processing fee.

  • Online donations can take 3-5 days to process.

  • You may set up a reoccurring donation through this option. The donor will be prompted to select a start date and an end date for their donations. The donations will automatically stop at the end date, if one is selected.

  • IMPORTANT: All donors need to STOP their reoccurring donations after the participant’s 6th month on the field.  Any donations made after the 6th month will NOT be counted towards the final deadline.

  1. Donating with Dynapay

  • Dynapay is an option for donating through Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT), which allows you to set up a monthly donation through your personal checking account.

  • You are unable to make a one-time only donation through Dynapay; this is strictly for reoccurring donations.

  • You can set up the reoccurring donation by going to the following website https://www.adventures.org/dynapay and completing the required fields.

  • Donations through Dynapay typically take 1-2 weeks to be processed. Donations are withdrawn from the your account on either the 3rd or the 18th of the month.

  • You may set up an end date for their reoccurring donations when they set up their initial DynaPay account.

  • If you do not select an end date you MUST submit a written request (fax, letter, e-mail) to Donor Relations to stop their reoccurring donation. This will NOT happen automatically.   A two weeks advance notice must be provided to stop any future reoccurring donations.  You can reach Donor Relations by phone at 770-983-1060×251 or by email at [email protected].

  • IMPORTANT: All donors need to STOP their reoccurring donations after the participant’s 6th month on the field.

  • There is no processing fee charged when using Dynapay.
