Ways to Give
As an all-volunteer nonprofit organization, Shepherd’s Center of St. Andrews relies upon the generosity of members, friends, and sponsoring partners to sustain and enhance learning opportunities, better serve the local community, and keep membership fees low. Because we know that one size rarely fits all, we offer several ways to give in the hope that you will find your perfect fit.
Please know that every gift makes an impact, and every gift is gratefully received and comes with the promise to pay it forward.

One-Time Donation
We welcome one-time individual and corporate donations. All donations are tax deductible because we are a 501(c)(3) organization.
Monthly Giving
Monthly Giving allows you to make a manageable small monthly donation (the cost of a couple of stops at your favorite coffee bar) turn into a substantial annual gift that, for example, will cover part of the cost of providing supplies for our classes and teachers.
Your online donation is automatically charged on the same date each month, allowing you to easily budget and support the Shepherd’s Center throughout the year. The Midlands Gives website is a safe and secure site with lower processing fees than other platforms. You will find the option to give once or _recurring _when you click on donate on our page on the Midlands Gives site Monthly Giving through the Midlands Gives website can be set up anytime during the year.

Planned Giving
- A few minutes of planning can give you and your loved ones peace of mind for months and years to come!
- When you review your plans, please consider making a _deferred gift_ to the Shepherd’s Center. It’s easy to do by adding a bequest to your will or adding a beneficiary designation to a savings account or life insurance policy.
- If you need to take a Required Minimum Distribution from an IRA, please consider including a _Qualified Charitable Distribution_ to the Shepherd’s Center. You’ll reduce your tax liability and have an immediate impact on the community we serve.
