Matching Gift For Men’s and Women’s Auctions

April 26, 2011 by Chadwick Persons

We are so pleased to be at the point of “KICKING” our debt out of here.  Currently, we have $70,000 left to pay on our Kitchen debt.  Thank you for your support, but let’s give another sprint to the finish and cross the line this year.

The Bluewater Covenant Bible Camp Board is serious about the getting out from our debt load.  They have decided to dedicate our Men’s and Women’s Auction monies to pay down the debt.  We see the finish line and desire to have you run with us to the end.

PLUS, we have been blessed with a donor who will make a Matching Gift for all of the Men’s and Women’s Auctions.  The Gift could be worth as much as $25,000.  In the past our actions have raised around $12,000 for camp’s programming and remodeling.  BUT just think if we could double that amount to $25,000, then double it again to $50,000 with the Matching Gift.  Our debt would be considerably decreased.

Therefore, we need your help:

  • Please bring items to the Auctions.  The more items, the larger the auction.
  • Give graciously.
  • If you are not able to attend, please consider sending an item for the auction or a gift towards the auction to help raise our amount.

Keep this in mind:  This is not just a fundraiser, but a way to continue to the ministry to youth and families.  Our Kitchen and Dining Hall is a defining part of our ministry.  Conversations and memories are made around the wonderfully prepared meals and the evenings of reconnecting in the Dining Hall.
