At long last, missionaries can now receive donations through the Awana.org website.  Donors can make one-time gifts or sign up for recurring gifts.  We can only accept credit cards (Visa, MasterCard, and Discover) at the moment, but other options are being explored.

Donors can choose to support missionaries. On the web page if you want to donate to us you will go to the destination box and click on US missionaries...... than click on Iowa .....than click on Ron Glynn.  Adopt a Club is currently not available due to some complex issues with the AAC program.  Donors will need to register their e-mail with a password the first time they visit.

One benefit to our donors, is that the transactions are posted to your account electronically, eliminating typos and other human errors.  Just as important, receipts will be sent by e-mail, reducing the number of lost receipts and dropped donors. 

The following link will take you to the site:  http://missions.awana.org.  If you have time, explore the site and let me know what you think.

To the many of you who have been asking for this, thank you for your patience.  We’re inching closer to the 21st century. 

Also here is two more ways you can help us reach the next generation!

Two Ways To Benefit Your Awana Missionary:

Non-Cash Assets
Many people consider cars, boats, timeshares, jewelry, business inventory, real estate, and other non-cash type gifts to help us reach boys and girls, and their families too, for Christ.  An estimated 90% of America's wealth is in non-cash assets, yet the vast majority of churches and ministries receive less than 10% of their gifts from these assets. Why? Because they're not equipped to accept non-cash gifts. Through our foundation we can accept them, and we will work with you to develop the best giving strategy for you and your family.  If done properly, givers can avoid or reduce taxes and maximize giving. 

Simply click the website below to learn more.  Select the Donation Button and choose the U.S. Missionary Fund. Under the Brief Description type the Missionary’s name or account number.

Your IRA
If you are over age 70 1/2, you may annually gift any amount up to $100,000 of your IRA to your Awana Missionary.  It’s very easy to make the gift by directing your custodian to transfer a portion of your required minimum distribution directly to Awana.  For more information simply click on the link below:
