How do I donate to Gideon Bibles?
Access the Gideon website at www.gideons.org. Enter either an amount or number of Bibles you wish to donate, at a suggested rate of $5 per Bible. Pay by credit or debit card. Sign up for an automatic donation withdrawal from your savings or checking account.
How can I get a free Gideon Bible?
The Gideons place free Bibles in hotels and often say to “take the Bible, not the towels” as they regularly replace one that are taken. You can also usually find a free Bible at your local church, a variety of online Christian ministries, or you can read it via a variety of free websites and apps.
How much is a Gideon Bible donation?
Bibles, not blimps
Each Bible costs the Gideons about $5. Operating purely on donations, with no advertising or vast Internet outreach — there's no Gideon blimp — the Gideon way works precisely because Gideons ignore a golden rule of sound business practices.
Who can join the Gideons?
They must be 21 or older and members in good standing of an evangelical or Protestant church, and adhere to the core spiritual beliefs of the organization. Wives of Gideons may join the Auxiliary of The Gideons International.
