Introduction
This section covers the practical, technical or fiscal aspects of donations,
whereas “Donations” presents general ideas concerning philanthropy
and charity. Reading the submenus should give you a good idea of the
contents and point you to your areas of particular interest. Obviously,
we would be delighted if you reviewed both sections in full.
A rather unusual bank!
ACN Bank is not only a virtual bank, it is also quite unique in that
it never reimburses capital, nor does it pay interest to its financial
backers. However, it follows the same strict rules of integrity and
openness as financial institutions in the management of the funds it
receives from the public.
Even if this bank wanted to, it could not pay material dividends, because
as soon as it receives money, it gives away everything that is not strictly
necessary for its operations, to people or communities that will never
be able to pay it back.
In other words, ACN Bank functions solely through donations. But its
benefactors are nonetheless wise people. Confident that giving to the
poor is lending to God, they know they will be rewarded in spiritual
dividends, and the Lord has inexhaustible reserves to honor such commitments.
Do not hesitate, therefore, to do business with us and to open
an account in ACN Bank. Enrolment, which is automatic when you entrust
a donation to us, is free of charge and carries no obligation whatsoever,
while offering some advantages.
- Free subscription to the Mirror
and other mailings you can receive by regular mail or e-mail.
- The possibility of sending us donation
instructions online, without any worry, paperwork or stamp licking.
- The satisfaction of reducing your
administrative costs and ours at the same time, and of making your
donation dollar do more good.
In a second phase, it will
also give you access to other services, like an online statement of
your donations for a given period of time or the possibility of visiting
our online boutique to exchange publications or objects of a religious
nature for donations.
Of course, we guarantee the highest degree of confidentiality as to
the personal information you give us. As for our secure pages, they
are encrypted through the same technology used by responsible on-line
businesses.
