Youth for Christ Victoria seeks to honour the expressed designation towards each program(s) and project(s) approved by the organization. Each contribution designated towards such an approved program(s) or project(s) will be used as designated with the understanding that when the need for such a program or project has been met, or cannot be completed for any reason determined by Youth for Christ Victoria, the remaining restricted contributions will be used where most needed.

According to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) rules, a registered charity cannot return a donation. Youth for Christ Victoria is a registered charity and therefore we are unable to refund any donations. A gift transfers ownership of the money or other gifted property from the donor to the charity. Once the transfer is made, the charity is obliged to use the gift in carrying out its charitable purposes.
