After you have made your first donation, you will receive instructions (on screen and via email) to create an account so you can store your contact and banking information for future donations and/or view your giving history in the future. 

Alternatively, if you have already made a donation, you may go to https://yfci.account.webconnex.com/ and follow the on screen instructions where it says "claim my account."

[Note: You cannot sign in to your account until you have created/claimed one. See previous FAQ "How do I create my online giving account" for instructions on how to do this.] To sign in to your account to view your giving history, view or modify your recurring donations, or edit your contact or banking information, click here.

You may notice an "account login" section at the top of the giving page. Using the sign-in option will enable you to view and load any previously saved billing accounts. While very beneficial, using an account is optional and not required to give. Any gifts given with your email address will still be logged to your account for future access regardless of whether you login.

To ensure your gift is recurring, enter the frequency (weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, twice a month, quarterly or annually) just below the amount on this donation page. These fields will appear after you have selected the fund to which you are giving.

You will also have the opportunity to select the start date of your pledge after you have chosen the frequency of your pledge.

You can set up, modify or cancel recurring gifts by logging into your account. To log into your account, click here.

We take seriously our responsibility to be good stewards of the funds entrusted to us. We are accountable to our donors, the recipients of our ministry and God to use them wisely.

We continually strive to keep our overhead low without sacrificing the structures and staff needed to maintain a high level of ministry. We use nearly 85 percent of our total revenue to benefit ministry recipients.

Overhead is only one consideration in choosing a charity to support. Much more important is the charity’s mission and how effectively it accomplishes that mission. Results, impact, efficient management, and fiscal controls all are factors in a mission’s effectiveness. Despite the implied message by Internet rating groups, the most effective charity is not necessarily the one with the lowest overhead rate. A reasonable amount of overhead is needed to achieve ministry objectives.

While we openly share our overhead rate, we recognise that overhead rates alone are inadequate for evaluating a ministry. Accounting practices and the method of delivering programs vary, making an across-the-board comparison based on overhead impossible.

As a member of the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability (ECFA), we adhere to high standards for fundraising and responsible stewardship. Youth for Christ International Ministries' member profile is viewable by clicking here.
