Thanks. I guess it's for real then. A friend of mine said that one thing that sets the Witnesses apart from most religious groups on the Internet is that they don't ask for money, such as asking for donations or selling books, DVDs, etc. For instance, the Mormons' Online Store:
http://store.lds.org/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/TopCategories1_715839595_10557_-1_
But I Googled it and found this jwgifts.org which is apparently there just to get money.

Interesting that the domain was created 10 years ago.. and is only renewed it seems on a yearly basis.. maybe encase the end comes.

It's genuine alright.
My wife donates each year via this site and gets a letter from London Bethel thanking her, plus a Tax receipt.

The admin's email is gb@jworg... At first I though that stood for Governing Body, then I realized it's Great Britain. lol
