CANADIAN Citizens

Citizens outside of the USA or Mexico.

At present, The Salvation Army is unable to issue tax-deductible receipts for donations from individuals outside the USA and Mexico. However, if tax deduction isn't your primary concern, we sincerely welcome your support and you can follow the donation directions listed above.
We are diligently exploring solutions to extend this benefit to donors in Canada and hope to provide tax-deductible receipts in the near future. Your understanding and patience are invaluable to us.

Wire Transfers from any country  

A wire transfer is another option but please note, it will not be tax deductible for anyone outside of Mexico. Bank information to do a transfer can be found at the bottom of this page. Two recommended options for wire transfer are...
 

Using Wise.com to transfer funds internationally or within Mexico

This way of transferring funds is typically much cheaper than a bank wire. It offers great exchange rates if exchanging dollars for pesos and much reduced fees versus a bank.  There are many methods, credit card, debit card, as well as using your local bank account.

Enter in your personal/business information about where the funds are coming from. 
You’ll need your Bank ACH #(Automatic Clearing House Number) This number could be the same as your ABA routing number (first nine digits before your account number on your checks) but you need to verify this with your bank. If using credit or debit card, you will need that information.

Follow the directions on Wise.com based on method of payment: credit card, debit card, or bank account.
 

Using a Bank to transfer internationally or within Mexico

Every bank has different information requirements so follow their guidelines for wire transfer. We know from experience that transfer fees can be as much as $75 USD per transfer. If wiring internationally, exchange rates used between US dollars and Mexican pesos could also be unfavorable.

Email address: hogardeninos.Mazatlan@mex.salvationarmy.org

Inform us of the wire transfer so that the Captains of The Salvation Army Children’s home can confirm receipt.
