Our Campaign

Levels of Support Needed to Succeed

In order to reach our financial objectives, we will need both a substantial number of givers and a few, fairly substantial gifts.

 

Giving Options

To ensure that we reach our objectives and potential, all members and those with a special interest in our cause and church are asked to consider special gifts over and above any regular contributions. Campaign gifts can be made in a variety of ways:

Long-Term Pledges are gifts payable over three years. Pledges are easier for most people and are essential to meeting our goal since it would be impractical, if not impossible, to reach our objectives with one-time, out-of-pocket gifts. Gifts may be paid in monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, or annual installments via cash, credit card, or direct deposit. A 10% or more initial investment toward your total pledge is requested. 

Non-Cash Gifts* include  securities such as stocks, bonds or gifts through qualified charitable distributions such as IRA rollovers; real estate such as marketable land, homes, vacation homes, and rental or commercial properties; or valuable personal property such as precious metals, gems, jewelry, artwork, collectibles and even new or slightly used and classic automobiles, watercraft, and motor homes.

Deferred Gifts* are another way you can support our efforts. These gifts might be given or arranged for now but not received until later. Some examples are new or fully paid-up life insurance policies, certain types of trust arrangements, or gifts through a person’s will by bequest.

Matching Gifts provide a possible way to double or even triple your gift to our cause and church. If you serve on the board, work for, or have retired from a company that matches charitable gifts, check with the company to see if they match gifts to causes like ours.   

*All non-cash and deferred gifts must be approved by the church before acceptance.
