I am so grateful for the powers that be at Columbine United Church in Littleton, Colorado for approving a scholarship fund to assist me on my journey toward my Master of Divinity. Once I move on from Iliff it is my desire to work with CUC to develop and administer an ongoing scholarship fund for those seeking a career in ministry. I am incredibly grateful for their help. That being said, the fund doesn't fund itself ...
Over the course of the next few years I will be undertaking a few large fundraisers to help me secure the $3,500/year that I need for Iliff School of Theology to match toward my annual tuition. This is an opportunity to decrease my overall cost of my education by one third. However, the 2015/16 school year is upon us and I am currently $2,900 shy of this $3,500 mark.
For every dollar you donate, Iliff will match that 100% up to a maximum of $3,500 per year. Today I humbly request your help. Your donation, be it $25 or $500, will impact my situation tremendously. In return I can off you prayers, encouragement and acknowledgement of your support. Please prayerfully consider my request.
Please make your checks out to: Columbine United Church (note Cheryl Swing scholarship fund in the Memo section). Please mail them to 6375 S Platte Canyon Rd. Littleton, Colorado 80123. Or you may also donate at http://de.gofund.me/cswingseminary.
*Anonymous donations are NOT eligible for the matching scholarship program. Due to guidelines established by the IRS Tax Code, funds for specific individuals are not tax deductible, even if paid directly through a non-profit such as Columbine United. However, for funds to be matched your check must be made out to Columbine United Church.
