HIS NAME MINISTRIES
OFTEN-ASKED QUESTIONS
"HOW MUCH OF MY DONATION GOES TO CLIENTS?"
All of a donor's donation,
if he requests it.
On our web site, the
donations received for cases ALL goes to pay utility or rent.
However,
the outreach consists of
more than paying household bills.
·
personalized
attention,
·
prayer,
counsel and ministry of love
to clients, some of whom have no really reliable friends.
A governing board oversees
the ministry.
If someone asks how can you
trust IHNM, a
good answer is
"They do no fund raising.
They send out a monthly newsletter, and they pray and trust God to provide. They
want to be in His good graces and would be apprehensive about doing anything
that is not honest and forthright."

THOSE WHO WOULD TAKE ADVANTAGE.
The scoundrels and liars
who are just looking for a handout.
Our ministry to these
requires more creativity.
Many years experience serves
IHNM well.
1.
We do not
write checks immediately. A few days delay and further interviews may help
us recognize abusers.
2.
Checks are
written to utility companies or rental agents, not given to clients.
3.
We are driven
to know who we should aid, not driven by fear of abusers.
4.
We can give
aid only to about 10-12% of those who apply so we strive to spend wisely.
5.
We show Gods
love in other ways besides paying bills
6.
God knows our
hearts.
