STEP 4 – Send Your Gifts and Make an Impact
Imagine No Malaria strongly encourages churches to complete the Record of Contribution Form when submitting
gifts. The form can be downloaded at www.ImagineNoMalaria.org, or call (866) 521-1179 to have it mailed.
Preferred Method for Submitting Gifts: Completing the Record of Contribution Form
1.
Open all envelopes and match the amount enclosed with the gift information provided on the envelope. Correct
any discrepancies, such as missing signatures for pledges (a signature is required for valid pledges).
2. Record all donor gift information as shown in the sample.
3. Summarize the totals in the “Total Gift/Pledge ($)” column and “Payment ($)” column.
4. Write one check to: UMC-Imagine No Malaria to cover all cash donations and checks written directly to the
church. Note donors covered in this check on the Record of Contribution under “special instructions”.
5. Return the opened gift envelopes, a copy of the record of contribution and the check to cover the amount raised
in cash to:
UMC – Imagine No Malaria
P.O. Box 440544

6. If possible, email the completed Record of Contribution form to INMInfo@umcom.org. While the excel version
of the form is preferred, a word version is also available. This form should be neatly printed or typed.
7. The pastor will receive an acknowledgement verifying the amount received.
