We are sustained through the generous financial support of churches and individuals like you who partner with us through financial gifts. Most of our income comes through individuals who offer consistent, monthly support. Yet there are a number of additional ways people have been able to offer support.
This list may show you additional ways you could be a blessing to this ministry.
Have your employer match your donation.
The matching gift program that many companies offer their employees can be a great asset to Cru staff members when they are raising support. It doesn’t take much time and the rewards are great. Some companies even offer to double gifts, not just match them. Others may even put a dollar value to volunteer hours! Would you please consider inquiring as to whether your employer offers such a program and if Cru qualifies? If Cru has met your employer’s qualifications, would you please send the matching gift form from your employer to the following address?
Cru
100 Lake Hart Drive #2400
Orlando, FL 32832
ATT: Nancy M. Troisi
Matching Gifts Administrator
Or email matchinggifts@cru.org should your employer have a website where the gift can be verified. Please know that we, as staff, are not permitted to verify any gifts and therefore please send any forms to our headquarters located in Orlando along with any donation you may want to make at that timeould you like to double your giving without spending another dime?
Consider donating your vehicle.
Want to skip the hassle of getting rid of an extra car? Contact us about the possibility of deducting the fair market value of your vehicle. Over the years, we have been blessed by a few car donations from our partners.
Frequent flyer miles.
If you can give them, we may be able to use them.
Condos, cabins, or campers.
Maybe you have an extra home we could stay at while we are traveling or doing ministry away from ours. Maybe you have a special cabin we could take a few key students to for a weekend retreat or a little family vacation. Our ministry brings us all over the state and country at different times. We’ve saved thousands of dollars as churches and ministry partners have blessed up with places to stay in locations like California, Colorado, Florida, and Wisconsin from a day to many weeks at at time. Perhaps you’ve been blessed with a potential location that you’d like us to use.
Host a support party.
Are you already a partner who believes in this ministry? Invite some of your Christian friends over for a fun dinner with us so we can share our vision for ministry. Helping us expand our team of supporters is important. And this intimate environment can be quite successful. Click here to read more and watch a short video that explains more about this.
Consider asking others personally to join our team.
Why should we have all the fun raising our support? Why not be our advocate at your church with individuals and your missions team?
Selling a business, real estate, or harvested crop.
There are often key ways to significantly alleviate a tax burden from a large sale and increase your ability to bless a nonprofit ministry like ours. Contact us before hand, and we can help you learn how.
Farmers and Ranchers.
Steer Inc. have helped farmers and ranchers give creatively through livestock and their acres.
Include us in your final giving.
For some it can be an awkward conversation, but often people have the greatest ability to give a sizable gift when they pass away. Just don’t wait too long if you would like to include us in your estate.
