Dear friend,
Not everything that expands is a good thing. Our waistlines, for example. The national debt. The number of Americans living in poverty. Mold growing in a water-damaged house.
Other things that multiply are positive, even extremely positive. They make for abundant life. Increased literacy in kids. Waste recycling efforts. Loaves and fishes that end up feeding multitudes. Love that gets shared.
When your generosity and mine can multiply, that’s the best! We have that opportunity right now at the Christian Century. This important organization, with a journalistic ministry that touches your life and faith every month of the year, is waiting to multiply your generosity. Thanks to a friend of the Christian Century who has stepped up big time, hoping that you’ll get excited about what you can do, we have a matching gift opportunity. This friend is offering a $50,000 challenge match. This means that all gifts received by December 31, 2023, will be matched dollar for dollar, up to the $50,000 challenge total.
This is big for us! Opportunities of this scale, that benefit the possibilities of a non-profit outfit like ours, don’t come along frequently. So, imagine the difference you can make right now. As in, TODAY! You can instantly double the impact of any gift you give ([link removed]) . That’s a difference maker for our “shop” where nearly 30-percent of our annual budget is reliant on donations. Subscription and advertising revenue do not cover our expenses, no matter how tightly we manage everything.
Please respond now. A $50 gift instantly becomes $100. A $500 gift suddenly becomes $1,000. Our friend extending this challenge hopes you’ll be a part of answering the call to support first-rate journalism. Your gift today will help the Christian Century continue to speak truthfully and thoughtfully to the biggest spiritual, political, and cultural issues facing our world.
Thank you in advance for your part in this double-your-impact fall campaign. I look forward to your kind response.
Peter W. Marty, Editor/Publisher
The Christian Century
