What should I do if the donor makes the check out to me personally?
💡 Tip: If possible, kindly ask the donor to void the check and write a new one made payable to Reliant. This helps ensure accurate tracking and allows the donor to receive an official donation receipt.
If they’re unable to reissue the check, follow these steps:
Deposit the original check into your personal bank account
Purchase a money order or cashier’s check for the exact donation amount
Make it payable to: Reliant
Mail the money order or cashier’s check to: Reliant 11002 Lake Hart Dr, Ste 100 Orlando, FL 32832
