Support

What Denomination is Awana associated with? Our ministry is not affiliated with any denomination.

Can I make a donation to a specific country? Yes, you can donate to a specific country or region of your choice.

How can I partner with Awana to reach more kids? There are many ways to partner with us in the U.S. Or you can support global initiatives in areas such as Ukraine, African public schools, the U.S./Mexico border churches and South Asia.

Is Awana Clubs only for churches? No, you can register and become a member for your community group, school/after school program, military, homeschool co-op or missional education.

What are the ages or programs that you offer? We have six different age levels of curriculum: Puggles (2–3 years), Cubbies (3–4 years), Sparks (K–2nd grade), T&T (3rd–6th grade), Trek ( 6th–8th grade) and Journey (9th–12th grade).

Why do some of the age groups overlap (i.e., age 3 and grade 6)? Age 3: Our Cubbies curriculum is intended for children within two years of starting kindergarten. Depending on birthdate, some three-year-olds will begin kindergarten in two years, and in that case, they will qualify for Cubbies rather than Puggles. 6th grade: In some ministries, 6th grade is part of the elementary level, but in others, 6th grade is classified as middle school. We offer 6th grade curriculum in both areas as a convenience for our users. 

I’m just purchasing products. I’d like to use my tax exemption without becoming a member. Can I do that? Please email your Tax Exempt Form to tax@awana.org

What type of payment methods do you accept? If you place an order online you can pay with a credit card or ACH (checking and routing account number). Over the phone, we only accept credit cards.

Where can I find an Awana club near me? Please visit our website under Find Awana, then enter your postal code to view all the churches running clubs according to age groups.

Does your program focus on missions? Our ministry is international, so we offer Awana GO, a global outreach missions curriculum, to equip leaders to connect kids and adults to God’s heart for the world.

How much does it cost to run an Awana club? About $35 per child covers the most basic supplies, but the cost varies depending on which items a church decides to purchase, as well as how much you spend on special events. As an example of how churches approach expenses, some may ask parents to cover the cost of their child’s handbook or uniform. Others prefer to collect .25 per week as dues. It is up to you how much you want to spend and how you want to cover the expenses. Remember membership gives you up to 30% off of regular product pricing.

Is there a starter kit? You can download and try out a free sample of our curriculum. When you’re ready to start clubs, our Getting Started Guide will help you choose the basic supplies you need to get going!

Can I have a printed catalog? While our ministry catalogs are digital, their format allows you to download and print at your convenience.

What Bible versions do you follow in your curriculum materials? We offer four bible versions to choose from. KJV, NKJV, NIV (1984 version) and ESV.

Do I have to purchase uniforms in order to run the club? No you don’t, although we’ve found that uniforms give kids a sense of belonging and provide a safe and easy way for kids to identify what group and leader they are with.

Does Awana need any kind of records of a child’s participation or keep any records of our club? No, churches keep their own records of leaders and children’s progress.

Do you offer Spanish materials? Yes we do! We have student and leader guide materials available for preschool through middle school.

How much does membership cost? The membership fee is $125 per year.

What are the benefits of becoming a member?  You get 30% off most of our curriculum products, tax exemption (may vary by state), local missionary support and full access to online training leaders can access anytime, anywhere.

Will you email me to remind me to renew membership? Sure. Three weeks prior to expiration, the person who last renewed the registration for the church will receive a reminder email.

Do I need to sign the Ministry Agreement to have an Awana membership? Yes. This agreement entitles your church to enhanced member benefits, including use of intellectual property and reduced pricing.

Do you provide any training? Yes! Awana Basics Online leader training is our online platform and is an exclusive benefit for ministries with an active Awana membership. Our local missionaries are also available to serve with training.

Is training mandatory? Training is not mandatory, but will certainly help you run your program more effectively.

Do you have training in Spanish? Yes we do! Visit our events page or contact Partner Care at (866) 292-6227 press #2 for Spanish.
