Four Ways to Help in Our "Special Appeal" Campaign
This fall, we have undertaken a 60 day (October 1 to November 29) "special appeal" campaign with our family, friends, and ministry partners. Our goal is to raise at least $25,000.00 in donations and contract fees to ensure meeting our support budget by year end.
Here are four ways you may participate in that campaign:
One-Time Cash Gift. Consider writing a cheque (payable to "Outreach Canada" and marked "Gibson Special Appeal") before the end of November. Donations may also be made using major credit cards (Visa, MasterCard, American Express) or on-line on the link in the top left hand cover of your screen. Gifts from both Canadian and US donors qualify for an income tax receipt (US donors should contact us for more information).
.
2006 Year End Pledge. If you are not currently in a position to respond, you may make a pledge toward our special appeal to be paid by the end of the calendar year. We will include pledges in calculating campaign progress.
Monthly Support. To help us move forward with our ministry, consider becoming a monthly supporter or, if you are already, increasing your monthly support to reflect changes in the cost of living or renewed support for our work. We would be happy to send you information about “OC Express”, a way to give through automatic banking withdrawal or credit card transaction.
Partner Referrals and Introductions. Perhaps you know people who might have a natural interest in the ministry we do? Your contribution at this time might be to arrange for us to meet them over coffee, a lunch appointment, or hosting a dessert party. Contact us if you would like to help us expand our network of prayer partners and financial supporters.
Here's how to get in touch. Contact us at ggibson@outreach.ca or at 519-576-1659.
We will be posting an update on progress toward our $25,000 goal on October 15, October 30, November 15, and November 30. GG
