NOTE: WE ARE MAKING A SWITCH! Beginning 2012, Coins for Kids projects will run from January to December so that all your BGMC giving will take place during a calendar year.
How does this affect South Africa - Place of Joy fundraising? We plan to accommodate giving to both projects from January to March 2012 but we want to make sure your offering goes to the project your girls have given toward. If you have a South Africa fund-raiser planned for early 2012, go ahead with it. When you submit your check, please write South Africa on the memo line so that we can record it properly. All offerings for South Africa must be mailed by March 15th, or submitted online by March 30th.
What is CFK?
Coins for Kids is the missions arm of Girls Ministries. Each year the national Girls Ministries Department, in cooperation with the Assemblies of God World Missions and Home Missions, selects a missions project that specifically affects children. Projects that the Coins for Kids fund has assisted include providing translation of the Girls Ministries curriculum into Spanish, HealthCare Ministries, playground equipment for the Native American Fellowship, House of Grace orphanage in Thailand, a bus for the choir at Hillcrest Children's Home, Mexico street children, equipment for the outreach of Inner City Church of Minneapolis and Chicago City Church, God 4 Girls ministry in Juarez, Mexico, the Hagar Home Maternal Center in Romania, and the Bolivian Hope Center.
Girls Ministries partners with the Boys and Girls Missionary Challenge—BGMC. The Coins for Kids offering received during the Nationwide Girls Ministries Sleepover not only benefits the national missions project but also contributes to BGMC when mailed to the national Girls Ministries Department.
What can you do in your church?
Order Coins for Kids coin and cash cards and distribute them to your girls. The cards are free. Contact Gospel Publishing House at 1-800-641-4310 and order as many as you need (Item # 734110). Encourage your girls and sponsors to fill coin cards with quarters, cash, and checks and turn them in during the Nationwide Girls Ministries Sleepover. Your church will total the money and send a check to the national Girls Ministries Department where you will receive BGMC and World Ministries giving credit for their giving. Please do not send coin cards through the mail.
Coins for Kids projects run from January to December each year. Any contributions that are received after January 1 of each year will be applied toward the next year’s project. Contributions are receipted for the calendar year in which they are received.
