Hey guys… here is some important information to read if you would like to give a donation to support me in The World Race
Basically, if you donate using a credit or debit card on this site, there is a fee deducted from the donation, by credit card companies, but if you mail in a check then 100% will be given for my World Race.
If you mail a check to AIM, then 100% of the donation is given. If you choose this way, then you have to include this information:
Appeal ID: DragonBethany in order for the donation to go into my support funds.
Please Read this information for more details! Any Q’s feel free to email me!
-
So if donating $100 or more, checks are best to use, payable to Adventures
in Missions. -
Send checks to Adventures In Missions, P.O. Box 534470, Atlanta,
GA 30353-4470. -
With a note that says Support: Bethany Dragon and your full name and address)
1. Credit Card Donors.
Our society loves the quick and efficient. Most donors will appreciate being
able to click a simple link, put in their info, and be done. Donors love even
more to set up an account to automatically donate on a regular basis and forget
about it. However, efficiency comes with a price. Credit card companies make
their money by charging fees to be able to use this service. When a donor gives
via credit or debit card, you will see a 5% fee deducted from Bethany’s support account for that
convenience.
2. Bank Draft Donors.
In order to reduce the fee for donations, we have added a Bank Draft choice to
your online giving. Donors can choose this option online and then they may
enter the information from the bottom of a check rather than a credit card. By
choosing this option, you will only see a 3% fee deducted from Bethany’s support account.
3. Written Check Donors. One
of the cheapest options is to have donors write a check or money order and send
that to Adventures In Missions, P.O.
Box 534470, Atlanta, GA 30353-4470.
This sends the check directly to our bank where it is deposited. The bank then
sends an image of that check to our accounting department to apply toward Bethany’s support. There
are no fees for checks mailed this way. However, they must include this
information along with the check:
“Appeal ID: DragonBethany”
4. DynaPay Donors. This last
option is to try and combine the convenient and cheap options as best as
possible. By signing up for DynaPay, a donation is automatically deducted from
a checking account each month with no fees. To sign up for DynaPay, I, Bethany,
will request a form by emailing [email protected]. Then the donor will fill
out that form and return it signed with a voided check to Adventures in
Missions, Attn: Accounting, 6000 Wellspring Trail, Gainesville, GA 30506.
IMPORTANT: The downside of
DynaPay is that the donor MUST contact us in the office to stop the automatic
withdrawal when they no longer wish to keep giving. DynaPay will continue to
deduct each month unless the donor directly says “Please cancel my
donation now.”
