Is the money contributed for the mission trip tax deductible?
Big World Ventures is a 501(C)3 non-profit organization, therefore any donations made to Big World is tax deductible. In order to receive a tax deduction, contributions must be made payable to Big World Ventures. The IRS requires donors to release to BWV the control of how their donations are allocated, however, a record will be kept of each trip participants’ account. Tax receipts are mailed out yearly at the end of January. If you have contributed over $200 to Big World Ventures, you will automatically get a receipt in January. However, if you have contributed less than the above amount, you may contact us and request a receipt to be printed and mailed to you. For Canadians Only, please note: 1. All trip costs are in US dollars. 2. US non-profit organizations are not able to give tax receipts for Canadian funds. We suggest working with your church for tax deductible receipts for your sponsors. Ask your church if they would be willing to receive checks made out to them on your behalf
