Frequently asked questions
Tell me the details about donating through PointingToJesus.org?
PointingToJesus.org is a public ministry of CrownLife International Inc 501(c)(3) EIN 721202161.
Thank you for your charitable love offering to CrownLife International (CLI), a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit (EIN: 72-1202161). All gifts are freely given with nothing received in exchange and are generally tax-deductible for U.S. donors. Receipts are provided instantly by email for online donations and by mail or email for checks or money orders. Year-end email is sent around January 30 of each year and it contains all receipts for each donation given during the preceeding calendar year. Our calender year runs from January 1 to December 31 each year.
All donations are received with the understanding that CLI retains full discretion over the use of funds. Offerings may be designated for a campus or fund in the memo line or accompanying note. Checks and money orders should be made payable to CrownLife International and mailed to:
101 Vista Drive, Cleveland, GA 30528-0502.
All online giving is protected to the highest industry standards (PCI DSS Level 1). CLI never receives full card or bank account numbers; all sensitive data is managed securely by our payment partners.
Does the native pastor receive 100% of my donation?
Through our partnership with Zeffy as a benefiting non profit we are charged $0 dollars in processing fees and percentages. Zeffy accepts tips from donors for their services. Feel free to tip them for their valuable work.
How does PointingToJesus.org and CrownLife International receive support?
Our field partners receive their full 100% donation credited to their account sheets and then in an act of genuine love and partnership they may sow back a percentage to CLI as the back office services and ministry lead.
We also accept direct donations and gift from anyone moved to provide support and connection to enable us to serve and to thrive in all that we are called to do. On this site we have two types of Donation buttons. One is for becoming a Kingdom Partner and providing support for CLI and PTJ while the other button has a drop down list with each native pastor's name on it. Donors can use the drop down list to direct their giving.
Does CrownLife International file a public IRS 990 form?
Yes we do and you can find them online under EIN 721202161 at the IRS.gov website under the Non Profit search tool. We have engaged historically in compassionate rescue and relief efforts globally in disaster zones and as such were formed as an official non profit back in 1991, as Mission del Caribe and later our official name changed to CrownLife International a few years back. PointingToJesus.org is a public ministry of CrownLife International and the code CLI501c3 will appear on banking statements.
Do you also provide a year end ministry update report?
Yes each year we have traditionally emailed both a financial giving summary report to each donor but also a ministry report. Jeffy will now email the immediate tax deductible receipts and the January 30 email with an attachment of all receipts issued for you on the former tax year. This is for your tax filing as a convenience. We will email to all supporters a year end ministry report seperately from within the Zeffy tool dashboard.
