We just received a very generous gift from a couple in our church. They gave utilizing an option that some of you may not be aware of. The company where they work offers "Employer Matching" for charitable gifts. Alaska Christian College participates in these Employer Match programs. Many larger companies offer this option, including Shell, Bank of America, Exon, IBM and Intel. The amount of donation the company is willing to match varies, but many are very generous. Intel, for example, will match up to $10,000 per organization per year.
If you are considering joining our support team, it is worthwhile to check to see if your employer participates in this type of program, your giving could be doubled! If you can't set up monthly giving with this type of matching, consider doing a re-occuring annual gift. As long as you let us know that you intend to give some amount (doesn't necessarily have to be the same amount) each year then we are able to count your gift towards our monthly support!
We are so excited to see how God is moving hearts for these Alaskan students. We are extremely grateful for every gift we receive. Thank you for your involvement in these student's lives!
