What we collect
On Children At Heart Ministries pages you can make donations and request materials. The information that we collect includes name, address, city, state, zip code, telephone number and e-mail address.

However, credit card information is not retained by Children At Heart Ministries or the Children At Heart Foundation.

How we use it
Children At Heart Ministries uses your information to provide you with better service, to help you complete a transaction and communicate back to you. From time to time, we may also use information you provide to contact you with information we think would be of particular interest to you. You have the ability to decline to receive this information at any time and to prevent similar communications in the future. Credit card information is used only for payment processing and is not retained for any other purposes.

Giving
We have been ministering to children and families for more than 60 years and are continually working to ensure every dollar is used to its fullest for this purpose. Anything less would violate stewardship principles and the trust we keep with you, with the children, families, and communities we serve, and most importantly, with God. We are committed to the highest standard of stewardship excellence. We will make very effort to honor any designation preference you have stated.
