Q: Does Asia’s Little Ones offer child sponsorships?
A: Due to governmental restrictions in some countries and difficult
logistical issues, Asia’s Little Ones has chosen to work
with projects that help groups of children rather than solicit
individual child
sponsorships. This has allowed ALO to reach out to thousands of
children that could not have been helped through individual sponsorship
programs.
Q: Does Asia’s Little Ones facilitate adoptions?
A: Asia’s Little Ones is not an adoption agency and cannot
facilitate adoptions. The compassion projects ALO assists provide
help for needy children in their native countries.
Q: Are my gifts to Asia’s Little Ones tax deductible?
A: Yes. All gifts to Asia’s Little Ones are tax deductible
as allowed by law. ALO is a subordinate of the Assemblies
of God,
which is a 501 (C) 3 nonprofit organization. After a donation is
received, a tax-deductible receipt is mailed to the contributor.
Q: Can I give properties or other personal assets to Asia’s
Little Ones rather than or in addition to cash gifts?
A: Yes. You can set up such gifts through your own investment or
accounting firm, or the Assemblies
of God Foundation can assist you.
You also can set up a deferred giving plan or trust that will allow
you to give to Asia’s Little Ones in the future.
Q: How much of my donation actually benefits the children?
A: Ninety-five percent of all designated funds are sent to compassion
projects that benefit the children. Our operational costs, which
amount to less than 20 percent of our income, are paid out of funds
raised for operational expenses and from undesignated funds. ALO
administers every dollar received with the highest degree of integrity
and stewardship. If you would like more information regarding Asia’s
Little Ones’ finances, please contact
us.
Q: Will contributions designated for a specific project or country
ever be used for some other need?
A: Asia’s Little Ones strives to honor the interest of the
contributor and only uses designated funds as specified by the donor.
