Reliant places a high priority on releasing grant funds directly to the organization approved to receive grants. Payment can be sent by check for U.S.-based organizations or by a wire transfer for international grantees.

• Reliant does recognize there may be instances where a direct deposit into an international Reliant missionary's bank account might be needed to avoid multiple conversion fees. Please contact us at projectfundraising@reliant.org if you need to discuss this option.
• It is preferred that the Special Grant Request form be completed or co-signed by someone other than the missionary who will ultimately receive the funds, even if that missionary is an approved signer on the project fund. However, this is a guideline for best practices and not a strict policy. 
  • Dave Meldrum-Green and Tom Mauriello will still do a thorough review and approval of all requests to avoid any impropriety in using the grant program.

Appeals to these guidelines will be reviewed on a case by case basis at the discretion of Reliant management.

For wires, an International Wire Agreement should be completed to capture all the necessary bank information. NOTE: This Wire Agreement should be used for paying grants only, NOT used for payroll.
