How to Support!


I want to thank you all in advance for any and all financial support you send my way! Firstly, please note the breakdown of funds and the total support needed.

Airfare and Traveler’s Insurance  $1,500.00
Personal Pocket Money*               $500.00
Stipend for Host Families**         $3,000.00
TOTAL                                     $5,000.00

Financial support is acceptable in either cash or check form. Checks can be made out to me personally or to my church, First Baptist Church (please put my name on the memo line). Eventually, all of the money will be deposited in the business account of indiAfrique and they will oversee the distribution of my funds accordingly over the course of my internship with Jeshua Community Church.

Unfortunately, indiAfrique is NOT a non-profit organization and therefore First Baptist Church cannot claim a status of tax-deductible on the collection. The church treasurer says First Baptist will still collect donations for me and will let the individual donors decide for themselves about claiming a tax-deduction for this donation. 

Please send your financial support to either

Alison Ott
60 Clarke Drive
Dubuque, IA 52001
or 
First Baptist Church
2143 Judson Drive
Dubuque, IA 52001

Thank you all for your love and support. God Bless!

*I am required to pay for my own toiletries, internet, phone airtime, extra meals, and possibly some of the supplies for the skits I will do with the youth at the church. It is not just pocket money for souvenirs.

**The stipend for the host family will cover living expenses, all meals, transportation as needed and an additional gift for the service of housing me. Many of the families I will stay with do not have a large income and it will be a wonderful opportunity to bless them with a generous monthly financial gift.
