Why is a Bank Account E-CHECK better than a Paper Check, PayPal, or Credit Card?

  • It‘s safe and secure - Your bank account information is safe and never shared with us, or anyone else.
  • It’s fast - Payments clear in 1-3 days.  No mail delay.
  • It’s efficient - No need for our volunteers to open, record, and deposit hundreds of paper checks.
  • It’s simple - Easy process, only takes 3 min’s!
  • It’s FREE for you, and only costs us $.50!  (PayPal and Credit Card donations cost you 2.9% more)
  • No account sign up required - Pay right away.
  • You receive a tax-deductible receipt immediately for your tax records.
  • It's green - Eliminates writing paper checks and you can easily manage your payables online.

Thus, a Give Now, Bank Account E-CHECK donation is our preferred method of payment.

All donations are transferred directly to our mission bank account of our sponsor organization Santa Clara Christian School, which is a licensed 501(c)3 charitable organization.  Click here for more about Santa Clara Christian School.

Mail a Donation

An E-CHECK transfer is preferred over a paper check for payments because it saves time of our volunteers to open, record, and deposit hundreds of checks.  The E-CHECK payment is our preferred method of payment, because it's super fast for you and for us, accurate, safer than paper because we never see your bank information (nor does anyone else handling your mail), and it only costs us $.50/transaction.  

For these reasons, we strongly discourage donations made with a paper check.  However, if you are not able to use the E-CHECK payment method, please mail us a paper check, carefully following the instructions below:

To mail a donation for any of the above items, please write a check payable to SANTA CLARA CHRISTIAN SCHOOL.  In the CHECK MEMO please PRINT:  GUATEMALA MISSION + ITEM NAME (i.e. CHECK MEMO:  Guatemala Mission - 1 Stove).  

If choosing to “Sponsor A Volunteer”, please only write GUATEMALA MISSION in the CHECK MEMO, then write the volunteer's name on an included post-it.  No personal names on the check or in the CHECK MEMO, please, only on an attachment or post-it.  

Please MAIL your paper check via First Class US Mail to:   

Guatemala Mission
Santa Clara Christian School
3421 Monroe St
Santa Clara, CA 95051
