2. Are my gifts tax deductible?
   
   

   Generally, yes.  Since RCE is a properly registered 501(c)3 charitable organization, your donations to RCE are tax deductible. However, personal gifts given directly to a missionary are not tax deductible. See How can I give? above for more information.
   
   

3. How do I get more financial information about RCE?
   
   

   RCE has established a fundamental operating principle of integrity and transparency about its operations and finances. For more information about RCE, our finances or our ministry, please contact our President at: RCEIntl@aol.com
   
   

4. What about financial accountability?
   
   

   RCE has been member of the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability (ECFA) since 2005 and abides by all of its strict requirements. An independent certified accounting firm conducts a full audit of RCE's finances every year. An independent Board of Directors conducts a budget approval process and review of finances annually. RCE complies with all International Revenue Service regulations and annually submits a tax return for the organization as required by the IRS.

5. Can I give gifts other than money?
