How Can I Make a Donation?
Donations can be received by cheque made payable to Mission Partners
International.
You can donate by phone using Visa or MasterCard by calling 1-877-551-5525.
You can donate online through Canada Helps
or Guide Star for US donors.
Can Donations Be Directed?
Yes! As long as it is someone or something that MPI is currently
supporting, you can donate to any worker or project. Just mark
the name of the person or the project (eg Pastor support, Mercy
Ministry, Prison Ministry) on the cheque or response card.
Donations for overseas workers will be put towards their monthly
financial support. All donations towards a particular project
will be held until the total amount needed for that project has
been raised. Once the financial goal for a particular project
has been reached, MPI reserves the right to allocate additional
funds to the most urgent need at that time.
Will I Receive a Tax Receipt
for Donations?
Tax receipts are issued for all donations over $10.00. Mission
Partners issues tax receipts at year-end, however, you can choose
to receive your tax receipt at the time of your donation. Simply
let us know this is what you would like.
Are Tax Receipts Issued for
Other Donations?
Gift in Kind receipts can be issued for material goods donated
to MPI. These can be purchased and then donated, or already be
the property of the donor and worth a specified amount. You may
request our pamphlet on Gifts in Kind for complete details.
What if I Lose my Charitable
Receipt?
If you lose or cannot find any receipt, please write, call, or
e-mail and we will issue you a duplicate receipt. Contact
