# Is MDM a good fit for me or my ministry?
MDM is the right fit if:
- You are serving in full-time or part-time ministry (minimum ~10 hours per week for at least 3 months)
- You have or are building a base of US donors who want to give tax deductible donations
- You have a pastor, ministry director, or organizational leader who can serve as your spiritual covering
- You want to focus on ministry rather than managing your own nonprofit infrastructure
MDM may not be the right fit if:
- Your donor base is entirely non-US (MDM only issues US tax receipts)
- You are looking for direct financial support or grants (MDM processes donations, it does not fund missionaries directly)
- You serve fewer than 10 hours per week in ministry
- You do not have a verifiable spiritual covering
**Note:** If you are unsure whether MDM is a fit, email info@modernday.org with a brief description of your ministry, where you serve, and your current donor situation. Our team can give you a quick, honest assessment before you invest time in the application.
