Yes!

Family Missions Company is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation. As such, all donations are tax-deductible as allowed by law. You should speak to a certified tax professional about your particular case.

FMC sends out tax statements in response to most* gifts, as well as annual statements at the end of January for all contributions totaling $250 or more over the course of the previous year.

Gifts totaling less than $250 in a year –

If you don’t anticipate giving $250 or more over the course of the year and wish to receive an annual summary of your giving, you may include a note requesting one with any donation you make. Once we receive any one request, you will receive an annual statement every year you donate, regardless of total, in perpetuity. If you have already donated, you may fill out the Request Tax Statement button above and we will be happy to provide you with a detailed receipt of your giving.

*Will I receive a statement at the time of donating?

FMC mails letters in response to most donations. These letters include the necessary language to deduct that particular gift from your taxes. The most common exception is if you set up an automatically recurring donation online. In these cases, you will receive a mailed letter for your initial gift and an annual statement if you donate total of $250 or more (see above) or you have requested one.

If you would like to give to your missionary via credit card or bank draft, you can donate via their profile page on our site. Donations made on missionaries’ pages are automatically tagged for their particular use. If you prefer sending in a check, make the check out to Family Missions Company and just be sure to include your missionary’s name in the memo line. So long as their name is included with the donation, the money will be routed to their fund.

If you need to update any non-sensitive information regarding your donation (run date, expiration date, amount, fund, or billing address), you may contact the Partnership staff by phone (337-893-6111 x610) or email (partners@familymissionscompany.com). You do not need to include any sensitive information that we already have on file. If you need to leave a voicemail, staff will confirm that they have taken care of the update as you requested.

If you need to update any sensitive information (card or account numbers), you can do so one of two ways:

1. By phone: You may call the office to update your information with the Partnership team (337-893-6111), or if it’s more convenient, you can schedule a time for them to call you here. This method allows the donation to run on the exact same schedule.
2. By submitting a new donation online: You may create a new donation on your missionary’s page or our donate page – simply select that you are updating account information and need the previous donation to be canceled. Be aware that if your old account has already been run for this month, this will be your second donation for the month.

Please do NOT send sensitive information (account numbers) over email or voicemail.

You can create Fundraisers on Facebook to raise money for FMC or your favorite missionary. These fundraisers are a particular hit around your birthday! Fundraising for a particular missionary? Be sure to include their name in your Fundraiser Title so we can make sure the funds go to the right place.

Many corporations have programs to match their employees’ generosity. Check to see if your employer has a matching program today! Matched donations go toward the original missionary or fund unless otherwise stipulated.
