If your gift is more then € 500, then:
- We will contact the receiving party to ask what they would do with your gift, get more information about their present circumstances, etc.
- We will look into the possibilities of duplication of your gift.
- In the light of the above, we will contact you, inform you, and seek your advice with respect to the purpose of the gift.
- Only when the above is realized, is your gift forwarded. Otherwise we will return the gift to you.
- We will require that the receiving party send you a personal note of appreciation with specifications as to what has been done with your gift, pictures, newsletters, etc.
- Ark Aid adds 2% to monies that are transferred outside of the Euro zone to cover costs for bank and exchange rate charges.
- If you are not satisfied with what has been done with your gift in the first year, we will refund it out of our own pockets (to a maximum of € 5000.00).
If you give without designating a partner or project, then:
- Ark Aid will choose at its own discretion. 100% of donations will be forwarded. None is used for Ark Aid running costs. We will attempt to duplicate your giving.
- At this moment all non-designated gifts are allocated for gift-matching projects for Bible distribution.
- If you are a Dutch citizen wanting to give to a registered Dutch charitable organization through the services of Ark Aid Foundation, then we ask that you will consider giving the tax benefits you receive from your gift to the same charitable organization.
