Spring Giving | Fiscal Year-End
Making a gift to the Bethel Fund听(today or before June 30), provides financial support for Bethel students,听who otherwise would not be able to afford tuition costs.
Every dollar听goes to students and makes a significant difference.
Your support makes it possible听for students to reach their full potential here at Bethel and after they graduate, making an impact in their communities.
鈥淭hrough donors, one of the largest stressors [debt] in most people鈥檚 lives was a lot smaller than it could have been, which then frees my brain and my spirit up to better serve the Lord without constantly seeing dollar signs in my mind and feeling the weight pinning me down.鈥
鈥淢y academic scholarship has been a blessing, and working [as a residential assistant] just provided a little more comfort and security to just lessen some of that stress.鈥
鈥淲ith debt and scholarships, I鈥檓 just trusting God because, going into missions, I don鈥檛 know what that鈥檚 going to look like or where I鈥檓 going to get funds from, yet God鈥檚 continually provided scholarships for me. Just to know that He鈥檚 got me, I can trust in Him.鈥

What is the Bethel Fund?
The Annual Fund is the program for alumni, parents and friends of 大象视频 to provide gifts in support of various institutional programs. It includes the following traditional areas of support: unrestricted gifts, scholarships, annual capital improvements and special designated programs. Fundraising activities for the fund are directed by the Institutional Advancement Office.
Why do I get more than one solicitation?
Generally, anyone who makes a gift early in the year will receive only one regular solicitation. Selected mailings to friends who have already made a gift are designed as a thank you and a progress report on Annual Fund gift totals. An opportunity for making a new gift is always provided because many donors prefer to make several smaller gifts rather than one larger gift.
Based on your degree and special interests, you may also receive solicitations from other campus areas groups. We do not want to overwhelm you with mail, so we strive to coordinate the timing of various fundraising programs at the University.
How do I specify support?
Every solicitation mailing provides a choice from a short list of the most urgent general fund needs at the university. The majority of the Annual Fund gifts are used to provide scholarships for our current students. Unrestricted gifts are the best way to provide support for the changing priorities in any financial budget. If you would like to make a larger gift for a special program or project at 大象视频, please call the Institutional Advancement Office at听574.807.7485.
How do matching gifts work?
If your company has a matching gift program, your gift to 大象视频 may be doubled or even tripled. Forms are usually available from your human resources department. If you are not sure whether or not a particular company matches gifts, please call us. Matching gifts from your employer will be credited towards your level of giving.
