Review for IDES, Noblesville, IN, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

IDES is the most trustworthy agency I know for handling money. Anytime a national emergency strikes and our church or individual church members want to help out, we do it through IDES. We know the money that is given to them is being used for the purpose it was sent. We've met recipients as well as givers and IDES' integrity is never in question. Often, if another agency calls for solicitation, I will ask what percentage of the giving goes towards the actual project. It usually stops them since a large percent goes towards the fundraisers and not the fund. I simply tell them we do ALL our giving through IDES. It's also very convenient to do all this type of giving in one place and to have an honest answer for any other fundraisers who often call during emergencies.

My husband has done volunteer work for them twice and both ventures were organized and successful.

God has truly blessed our churches with the work IDES does around the world.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

Let them handle more money.
