  • Altrua Ministries seeks to conduct our activities with the highest standards of integrity and to follow Biblical guidelines for giving.
  • Altrua Ministries ensure that donations are used for the purposes for which they were given. Our policy is to meet the needs God lays before us, so that Christ is lifted up and the mission for giving is accomplished.
  • All donations to Altrua Ministries are tax deductible to the full extent allowed by law. In order to help our donors determine the tax-deductible portion of their donation, we record all donations and an end of year report will be provided to donors.
