How can I give securely online?

The simplest and most direct way to support the mission is through our secure online donation portal. You can make a one-time gift or set up a recurring monthly partnership to provide ongoing, stable support for our missionaries and projects.

What are the benefits of giving stock and securities?

Donating long-term appreciated stocks or mutual funds is one of the most tax-efficient ways to give. By transferring securities directly to Send International, you can generally avoid the capital gains tax you would have to pay if you sold them first, allowing you to make a larger impact at a lower original cost to you.

How can I give from a Donor-Advised Fund (DAF)?

If you have a Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) with a provider like the National Christian Foundation (NCF), Fidelity Charitable, or Schwab Charitable, you can easily recommend a grant to support our work. To make a grant, simply log in to your DAF provider's portal and search for Send International by our legal name and Tax ID (EIN).

How does giving from an IRA work?

For partners aged 70.5 or older, making a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) from a traditional IRA is a powerful, tax-wise giving method. A QCD can satisfy your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) for the year and is excluded from your taxable income.

Diaspora ministry in Clarkston, GA

Clarkston, a small community on the outskirts of Atlanta, is one of the biggest resettlement towns in the US. Every year, about 1,600 refugees settle in this town and begin their new lives in America. They come from around the world, wherever conflict or natural disasters have upended life.

There's a wide open door here to work among people from some of the hardest-to-reach countries in the world. Refugees are excited to make new friends, have many questions about life here in America, and are re-thinking their lives. It is a perfect time to welcome them with the love of Christ.

Our Clarkston team primarily reaches out to people from Central Asia. Team members use their different giftings to meet the felt needs of the new families and to develop friendships. They help fill out paperwork, teach people to drive, offer English lessons and tutoring programs, give doula support during pregnancies and births, and put on Kids Camps for refugee children.

The goal is to develop real friendships, have meaningful conversations, and introduce these refugees to the God who loves them enough to make a way to himself. Most refugees are easy to get to know and very easy to have conversations about God with. Hospitality is a way of life for this people group, and they love to welcome team members to their homes and cook for them. Come join our team!

The path to missions can feel overwhelming! Our experienced mission coaches will walk alongside you every step of the way.
