All church and project funds must be vetted first by the Program Team lead to confirm the church/ministry partnership with Reliant (a Memo of Understanding has been received) and to confirm that this request is one that they believe Reliant should move forward on.

A partner does not need to have workers or volunteers associated with Reliant in order to create a restricted church/project fund. Any church/ministry may become a partner with Reliant with the sole purpose of church/project fundraising. 

Purpose:

...

Any Reliant employee/associate may raise funds on behalf of a church/project fund. A U.S. citizen who is not a Reliant employee/associate must become an associate with Reliant in order to raise church/project funds on behalf of Reliant.

Foreign nationals may raise support for a church/project fund on behalf of Reliant according to these criteria: 

• Individuals are identified and vouched for by a Reliant worker or church/ministry partner.
• Individuals must complete training for raising church/project funds on behalf of Reliant and be officially deputized.deputized 
• If raising funds for both Reliant and another organization, individuals must complete a dual solicitation agreement (Dual Solicitation for APFs).Individuals are identified and vouched for by a Reliant worker or church/ministry partner.
• Assessment for all Affiliated Project Fundraisers is completed through an AF application that is reviewed and approved by the Program Team.?? (is this for fundraisers or designated grantees?)
• Foreign nationals do not receive an individual MTD fund number as they are unable to become an employee/associate.

The Reliant Point Person is the individual who is the contact person for the church/project fund. All The Reliant Point Person is either a Reliant employee/associate (preferred) or if the partner does not have employees with Reliant, an a vetted individual from the church/ministry. Should we say all church/project funds require a reliant point person?
