We are proud to be PayPal Verified. As such, you can be assured that your donation through PayPal will be received by Kaufman County ARES, Inc. On each page of this site, at the bottom right is a donation box, this donation is also processed through PayPal, but it gives you the option of making a one-time, weekly, monthly or annual donation using PayPal.

As always, your donations is 100% Tax Deductibleunder the law. We are a registered 51(c)3 charity and are supported by direct support from the public like you.

If your donation is less than $250.00, you may use your email as your donation receipt, though we will still send you one via email.

FEE NOTICE*:
When we receive a donation via PayPal, they take about between 1.9% to 2.9% + 30¢ for each donation received. In most cases this is far less than most other donation options, but it does take from the funds that we receive. You still receive a deduction for the entire amount. For example, if you donated $1.00 to us, we would receive @ 67¢ or a donation of $100 we would receive @ $98.10. This still places our donation received rate above national averages, where most organization only receive between 65% and 70% of the donations raised. Our average donation reveiced versus fees paid out, range between 90% and 95%, while donations via checks (both on and offline) yield us 99% to 100%.
