ACS will not be liable for any lost or stolen cash donations. Foreign Checks/Currency: by definition means any check that is drawn off of a NON-US Bank, OR does not have US dollars imprinted on the check. ( US Dollars may not be hand written on the check). You are responsible for converting this type of donation into US dollars. 2) Check Contributions: Enclose your checks with page one of the Donation Submission Form and mail to the Processing Center address using labels provided by your DetermiNation Event Manager. Checks must be made payable to American Cancer Society. DO NOT: STAPLE OR TAPE CHECKS. DO NOT: SEND DONOR FORMS OR PLEDGE CARDS TO THE PROCESSING CENTER.
