Asked in Contracts for South Carolina

Q: If money given to me as donations is in an account with my name and designated by the mission organization who holds it?

The organization is saying I can now only use my money on a short term trip with them in the next three years. I was only committed to going with them because they were helping me get overseas to work with them long term & they never told me of any time limit.

A: IMO, if the organization "gave" you the money upon condition that you make the trip overseas to go to work for them within the next three years, then you must either do that or give the money back--so they can use it to find another employee willing to move overseas to work.
