Onboard as a Missionary

Step 1: Create an Account

Go to HopeGives and sign up. 

Step 2: Begin the Missionary Verification Process

Once your account is created, start the verification process to connect your profile to your organization. This ensures that your campaign is recognized and approved by your organization. Go to Profile -> Your Organizations -> Become a verified Missionary. You can learn more about this step here.

1. Go to Account > Your Organizations

2. Click Become a Verified Missionary

3. Select your affiliated organization

4. Fill out the required information

5. Select if you would like to "Mask" your name if serving in a sensitive region

6. Submit your request for review

Your organization will be notified, and you'll receive an update once your status is verified.

Step 3: Create a Hope Campaign

Once your account is verified, you can create campaigns to share your mission:

• Campaign Name: Choose a clear, meaningful name

• Goal Amount: Set a realistic financial target

• Description: Explain the purpose and how funds will be used

• Photos: Add images that help donors connect to your story

Step 4: Share with Your Community

• Post on social media

• Email your network of supporters

• Share your campaign link directly or via QR code

• Update regularly to keep people connected and engaged

Step 5: Collect the Funds

All Organizations will collect the funds directly from missionary campaigns and distribute them through their existing internal channels.

• You will not manage the funds yourself—your organization will handle the collection and distribution

• Make sure you confirm this process with your organization so you know how funds will be routed

If you're unsure how your organization handles payouts, reach out to your administrator for guidance before launching your campaign.
