Option 1
Send a check to District 23. Make your check payable to District 23 AFG.
Donations for Institutions or any other specific purpose should be indicated in the memo section of the check. Donations for Alateen should be made payable to District 23 Alateen.
Mail your check to:
District 23 AFG

Option 2
You can send money to District 23 via PayPal. For this option, you need to have a PayPal account.
Important Notes: The district pays a fee when you send money via PayPal. To offset this fee, you can either increase the amount of your donation to cover the PayPal fee (3% to 5% of your donation amount) or send a check to the district (See Option 1).
Additionally, the screenshots below may be different from what you see in your PayPal account, but you should be able to follow the process outlined below.
