Your Offerings and Donations Are Making a Difference!
The Restored Church of God is reaching millions of people every year with the gospel of the kingdom of God. This Work is made possible by the voluntary, freely given tithes and offerings of the members of the Church and by offerings and donations of co-workers and donors around the world. This Work could not be accomplished without your support.
Over the years, we have been asked if automobiles, boats, stocks, even homes could be donated. The Church has not been in a position to accept such non-cash or “in-kind” gifts before, but that is no longer the case. In a giant step forward for the Work of God, The Restored Church of God can now facilitate all types of non-cash donations through the services of iDonate.com, which provides more options to give to the Work of God.
For an idea of what iDonate can do, here are some examples of non-cash gifts accepted by the service for other non-profits:
- Grain: A farmer decided to donate a portion of his business inventory, which was grain ($306,000).
- Designer Handbag: A girl used her Louis Vuitton handbag once, but decided to donate it ($950).
- 2005 Honda Shadow: After losing her husband, a widow donated his motorcycle for which she had no use ($4,166).
- Chaparral Ski Boat: Another woman wanted to sell her ski boat, but dreaded the selling process and instead donated it ($14,000).
- Lynx 54” Portable Grill: One man donated his gently used grill when it came time to sell his home ($4,500).
Donating Non-Cash Items Is Simple!
To make non-cash donations go to the Member Services section of rcg.org and click the iDonate tab under “Member Options.” (Our co-workers can contact The Restored Church of God Headquarters by phone at 330-334-2266.) You will see icons under “Ways to Give.” Then click on the icon that best matches the donation you would like to make.
You will be prompted to enter some general information about your item(s) and iDonate takes it from there.*
If your item is accepted (not all are), you will receive further instructions by email.
Upon completion of the sale, proceeds are transferred to the Church and you will receive a receipt. (Note: Due to the nature of IRS guidelines regarding charitable contributions, you may or may not receive an actual dollar amount on your receipt.)
Your cash or non-cash donation can have a powerful impact on a world searching for answers. We thank you for your support.
*The Restored Church of God is not involved during any part of the non-cash donation process. The iDonate company performs a service for the Church—turning non-cash donations into funds, which allows the Church to continue preaching the gospel to the world. If you have any questions about how to donate your non-cash items to The Restored Church of God, contact the Fundraising Department at 330-334-2266.
