Giving

ARMS is not affiliated with a denomination, and therefore depends upon faithful partners to both pray for and to give to the ministry. Missionaries raise their own support. ARMS collects funds designated to the missionary and deposits that amount into the missionary’s account for their use. Each missionary is accountable to ARMS for all funds received through the organization. The board does not take a percentage of the missionary’s income each month to operate the home office. Missionaries and individuals do contribute to the financial needs of the office. Additionally, funds are received for the general operation of the Harbour Light of the Windwards radio station and for special projects approved by the ARMS board.

ARMS is an exempt organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.  Contributions to ARMS are qualified for Federal and State income-tax deductions in most cases. Donors receive tax receipts from the ARMS office. Please consult with your local tax advisor with questions about your specific financial issues. ARMS does not provide tax or legal advice.

Funds will be used as specified by the donor, or if unspecified, at the discretion of the ARMS board. If for some reason this is not possible, someone from ARMS will contact you with an explanation. Gifts designated to a particular missionary are understood to be for the ministry funds of that missionary.
