Your sponsorship donation is being made to Child Sponsorship Services on behalf of Glory OutReach Assembly U.S. and will support the Glory Outreach Assembly’s Child Compassion ministry. Child Sponsorship Services is a division of BrightPoint for Children, Inc. and a registered 501(c)(3) organization. All donations and sponsorship payments made to Child Sponsorship Services are 100% tax-deductible under IRS regulations unless otherwise specified at the time of the donation.

Sponsorship

It is expensive to house and educate the children we have rescued as we provide for housing, nutritious meals, medical care, emotional and behavioral care, academic support, discipleship, and whatever other needs may arise. To help cover expenses, a child may have sponsors in the U.S. as well as in Switzerland through our sister organization. A child will not have more than 5 sponsors. It takes a village to raise a child according to African proverb and we trust you understand why your child may have more than one sponsor. Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns.

Method of Payment

You authorize Child Sponsorship Services to charge your account at the frequency and in the amounts designated by you during the donation or sponsorship sign-up process. All amounts will be billed via the method of payment you designate. 

Tax Statements

By January 31 of each year, we will provide you with a statement itemizing each of your contributions in the previous calendar year.   With some contributions, we may give you an individual receipt of your donation, but our standard practice will be to provide you with an annual summary statement as written acknowledgment of your contribution(s).  

Refund Policy

Donations or sponsorship payments to Child Sponsorship Services, like all charitable donations, are not refundable. Child Sponsorship Services may consider, at our discretion and within IRS guidelines, a refund if the donation was made accidentally or there are extenuating circumstances. A written request must be made to Child Sponsorship Services (connect@childsponsorshipservices.org)  within 48 hours of the donation in order to be considered for a refund. Child Sponsorship Services will not issue a refund after the donated funds have been forwarded to Glory Outreach Assembly U.S.
