FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Our mission is to lift and support missionaries worldwide by delivering Christmas packages and gifts, providing essential supplies, and ensuring every missionary feels remembered, supported, and loved as they serve far from home. 

There are many ways to be part of Missionary Angels! You can send a Christmas package to a missionary you know, make a donation, contribute toward Christmas gifts for missionaries, participate in Adopt-a-Missionary (once announced), or help spread the word by sharing our mission with others. To learn more, visit our website or follow us on Facebook and Instagram @MissionaryAngels. 

Missionary Angels offers a variety of programs, including sending a Christmas package to your missionary and contributing toward Christmas gifts for missionaries.

New this year, we are launching the Adopt-a-Missionary Program, which works closely with mission leaders to identify and fill the most essential and urgent needs of missionaries serving abroad.

Every penny counts—about 90% of your donation goes directly to bless missionaries, and the remaining ~10% covers minimal admin needs. All of the work is done by loving volunteers, with no paid staff. 

No. Missionary Angels is entirely volunteer-run. None of our team members receive salaries or compensation — 100% of the work is done by volunteers who are passionate about supporting missionaries.

 It depends on the program:

• Missionary Christmas Package Delivery – Families cover most travel and delivery costs, so about 90% goes toward travel/delivery to ensure packages arrive at mission offices.
   
• Christmas Gift Donation Program – About 20% goes toward travel/delivery, with the rest used to purchase and package gifts.
   
• Adopt-a-Missionary Program – About 30% goes toward travel/delivery, with the remainder providing missionary supplies and gifts.
   
• General Donations – Spread across programs to support both Christmas gifts and Adopt-a-Missionary needs.

Travel and delivery costs may include airfare, international taxes and fees, visas, ground transportation, gas, duffel bags, luggage carts, and other essentials. The largest expenses often come from high airline baggage fees for extra checked luggage. To help keep costs low, I primarily use airline employee benefits to reduce airfare whenever possible.

💡 All labor is 100% volunteer—no salaries or paid staff—so donations directly support missionaries.
