Deputized Fundraisers

Those who have been trained and authorized by Reliant to solicit funds on Reliant’s behalf are deemed deputized fundraisers.  Deputized fundraisers are most often full-time employed missionaries but may also be part-time employed missionaries, associate staff, affiliated project fundraisers or development officers.

Deputized fundraisers bear in mind that they are always representing Jesus Christ, their local church or ministry, and Reliant in all situations, especially regarding those who entrust their money to the ministries of Reliant. Reliant’s Code of Ethics, the ECFA’s Fundraising Standards, and Reliant’s policies are to be regarded without exception, not only for their letter of the law, but in the spirit of the highest commitment to Christian integrity. Even the simple appearance of impropriety should be avoided.

Dual Solicitation

Full-time employed missionaries with Reliant are generally required to direct all donors through Reliant for the purposes related to the missionary’s ministry job description.
