Maybe you decided to vacation closer to home this year, or your business travel and credit card purchases generated more miles than you need. Whatever the reason, don't let your airline reward miles collect dust. Put them to work for God's kingdom by donating them to GFA World.
Billions of unused airline miles accumulate in frequent flyer accounts, and many of these miles expire before their holders have a good opportunity to use them. When you donate airline miles, you can give a gift to God's Kingdom that is worth hundreds or even thousands of dollars!
For instance, GFA World may use your donated airline miles to send speakers to churches to share the need for national missionary or sponsors for GFA's Child Sponsorship Program. The money we would have spent on the flight can then be used to cover other costs in the office and on the mission field, letting us do even more with the resources God has given us. Your gift can make an eternal difference in remote villages in Asia.
The miles may also be used to cover the cost of staff travel to and from the mission fields of Asia, as well as for ministry business throughout the United States.
To get started, review the information about your airline on the chart below:

NOTE: Because airline miles and points are awards from companies and are not taxed as income, the IRS does not allow the donation of airline miles or points to be used as a charitable deduction.
