Gifting Conduit

The Gifting Conduit seeks to enable micro-ministries like house churches and outreaches to maximize contributions to their Kingdom works by creating a 501(C)3 conduit through which funding can flow allowing their benefactors to lawfully deduct their contributions from their taxes. As a 501(C)(3) itself, the Gifting Conduit is ever-searching for micro-ministry partners who viably engage in Kingdom works but have not yet formally achieved 501(C)(3) status.

Once a micro-ministry becomes a Gifting Conduit partner, its benefactors can give to that micro-ministry through the Gifting Conduit. The Gifting Conduit will then issue a 1099-C to those givers at the end of each year so that such gifts can be deducted from their taxes. The deductibility of giving enables benefactors to give more to the ministry.

The Gifting Conduit withholds a 10% tithe from the funds that flow through it in order to fund the processing of gifts and proper 501(C)(3) reporting and management. For micro-ministries that seek to obtain independent 501 (C)(3) status, the Gifting Conduit offers free assistance for those micro-ministries who achieve an annual gifting volume of $15,000 through the Gifting Conduit.

The Gifting Conduit does not provide legal or tax advice. Prior to making any decision to contribute to a particular charity or to deduct monies donated to a given charity, one should obtain independent counsel from an appropriate professional.
