💡It’s best to encourage donors to give online or by check when possible, rather than in cash—this helps ensure accurate tracking and smoother processing.


Kindly ask the donor if they’d be open to giving their gift online or by check (made payable to Reliant). Let them know this helps us track their donation accurately and ensures they receive a proper receipt to acknowledge their generosity.

If a cash gift is the only option, follow these steps:

  1. Deposit the cash 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.
    đźš« Do not sign the back of the money order.

đź’ˇ 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.



No. For transparency and proper record-keeping, all cash gifts—regardless of the amount—must be converted into a money order or cashier’s check and sent to:
Reliant
11002 Lake Hart Dr, Ste 100
Orlando, FL 32832

This ensures the gift is properly tracked and acknowledged.


You can respond with something like:

"Thank you so much for your generosity. As a missionary with Reliant, I’m required to send any donations I receive directly to Reliant. This ensures we maintain integrity in our donation process and remain in good standing with the IRS."

If the donor is adamant about not wanting their gift sent directly to Reliant, you can process it as an anonymous gift.


Yes, the gift will be tax-exempt as long as you include the donor's information with the money order or cashier's check. This ensures the donation can be properly tracked and receipted for tax purposes.
