Giving

We appreciate the generosity of our members and contributors who support the mission, ministry and practical needs of CitySalt. As a charter member of the International Church of the Foursquare Gospel, we are a 501(c)(3) religious non-profit.

To help facilitate contributions, we have multiple methods for giving:

  • For those looking for ease and flexibility, you can make electronic contributions via our online giving platform here. You can choose from multiple funds and take advantage of the re-occurring feature that will automate giving with the parameters you set up. You will get an automatic receipt each time a gift is given.

    • If you choose the Automated Clearing House (ACH) option, your contribution be handled at a lower cost per transaction.

    • If you choose the Debit/Visa option it will charge a 2.3%+ $.30 for every transaction as part of the merchant processing fee. 

  • Take the hassle out of writing checks and let your banking institution do it for you. Most banks and credit unions have an auto-pay system that allows you to schedule one-time or recurring contributions at no cost to you. They can simply write and mail the check for you. If you used this method, please be sure to use our PO Box mailing address.

  • Checks should be written to CitySalt Church and include any specific instructions on the memo line. This method allows 100% of your donation to go directly to CitySalt without any bank or processing fees. Checks can be mailed to our PO Box mailing address or can be given during Sunday services.

Kindness Fund

CitySalt Church maintains a Kindness Fund in order to provide a resource bank, and network specifically set aside to help folks who are connected with CitySalt Church who find themselves in a unique time of need. Funds raised for the Kindness Fund can be used to meet immediate short term needs identified from extenuating circumstances, but they are not intended to meet reoccurring ongoing needs. (Examples: gift cards for groceries/household items, unexpected car repairs, child expenses, etc.).

The Kindness Fund Committee is an extension of the CitySalt Church Council. The committee is made up of 1 first-year council member, 1 second-year council member, and one member of the pastoral team. The committee will convene (via Zoom, email, text, phone call, or in-person) to discuss Kindness Fund requests and come to a decision depending upon the specific request, how much funds are available, the needs timeline, whom the request is for, etc.

Kindness Fund Requests

Those wishing to request aid from the Kindness Funds for themselves of on behalf of a known person in need can fill out the form by clicking the “Request Funds” button.

  • Be ready with some personal contact info so that the Kindness Fund Committee can connect with you.

  • Be prepared to articulate the need and what you are asking. ie: “I’m haven’t trouble meeting ________ expense . It will cost _______ and it due by _______.”

  • Once the form has been completed, the Kindness Fund Committee will receive the request, meet to discuss, reach out if any clarifying questions arise, and respond. Sending cash or checks directly to individuals is not ideal. The preferred method of assistance is to send gift cards or pay bill directly.
