Many States require charities soliciting funds within a State to register with the State agency responsible for regulating charities. Samaritan's Purse is registered in each State where it is required to do so. As a faith-based, religious organization, several States exempt our ministry from solicitation registration.

Samaritan's Purse is a 501(c)(3) organization, and all gifts are tax deductible to the full extent allowed by law. Samaritan's Purse is audited annually by an independent public accounting firm, and our audited financial statements are available upon request at: Samaritan's Purse, P.O. Box 3000, Boone, NC 28607, Attention Finance Department, or by calling 828-262-1980.
