If a donor would like to make a gift by check, here’s what to tell them:

  1. Make the check payable to:
    Reliant

  2. Memo line:
    Include your name, the ministry/project name (if applicable), and your 4-digit Fund Number

  3. Mail the check to:
    Reliant
    11002 Lake Hart Dr, Ste 100
    Orlando, FL 32832

💡 Tip: Encourage donors to send checks directly to Reliant to ensure accurate tracking and timely receipting.

If a donor gives you the check directly:
Please forward the check (along with the original envelope, if possible) to Reliant at the address above.

If a donor sends a check to you instead of to Reliant, follow these steps:

🚫 Do not deposit or hold the check.

  1. Verify that the check is filled out correctly:

    1. Payable to Reliant

    2. Your name (or the ministry/project) and 4-digit Fund Number on the memo line

  2. Forward the check (and original envelope, if available) to:
    Reliant
    11002 Lake Hart Dr, Ste 100
    Orlando, FL 32832

💡 Tip: Kindly thank the donor and suggest they send future checks directly to Reliant for the smoothest experience.

💡 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:

  1. Deposit the original check into your personal bank account

  2. Purchase a money order or cashier’s check for the exact donation amount

  3. Make it payable to:
    Reliant

  4. Mail the money order or cashier’s check to:
    Reliant
    11002 Lake Hart Dr, Ste 100
    Orlando, FL 32832


You can usually purchase a money order at places like the post office, 7-Eleven, Walgreens, CVS, most grocery stores, or Walmart.

Follow these steps to complete it correctly:

  1. Pay To:
    Write Reliant in the “Pay To” field. If it’s blank, you may handwrite the name.

  2. Add the mailing address:
    Reliant
    11002 Lake Hart Dr, Ste 100
    Orlando, FL 32832

  3. From/Sender:
    Write the donor’s full name and address

  4. Memo:
    Include your name and your 4-digit Fund Number

  5. Signature (Front Only):
    If there’s a signature line on the front, sign your name.
    🚫 Do not sign the back of the money order.

💡 Addtional Tips:

  • The money order should match the exact donation amount.

  • There may be a small fee, which you’ll need to pay up front.
    You may be eligible for reimbursement—check the Reimbursement section or contact reimbursements@reliant.org with any questions.

  • Tear off and keep the receipt for your records.


  •  Reliant can accept international checks only in the following currencies:
    • Canadian dollar (CAD)
    • British pound (GBP)
    • Euro (EUR)
  • If a donor's check is in any other currency, please advise them to make their gift online, using a credit card
  • For large gifts or if the donor prefers not to give by credit card, please ask the donor contact Donor Services via email at donor.services@reliant.org to explore alternative payment options
