Combined Federal Campaign # 11922

First of all, a big "thank you" to every workplace donor and volunteer. Your donations via payroll deduction to Mission To Children make a significant contribution to our program: cultivating Christlike character in children—especially those at risk; and caring for at-risk kids internationally by providing food, shelter, training, and Bible teaching.

The Combined Federal Campaign provides an opportunity for federal, civilian, and military employees of the United States of America to designate a portion of their paycheck to Mission To Children through payroll deduction. It is the largest workplace campaign in the world. Mission To Children continues to find favor as one of your favorite charities. If you pledged, we'd like to know about it and thank you.

It will take as much as four to eight months for Mission To Children to receive the list of donors, so please be patient in our response to your contribution.

What is the Overhead Percentage?

Using the latest 990, Mission To Children spent 2.5% on fundraising. Have you ever wondered if low overhead equals efficiency? If you would like third party input on this issue, Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability published on its website several helpful resources including: "How Much for Fund-Raising? Myths About Ministry Efficiency."

Video - Character Training Touching Lives

A great example of character training intesecting ongoing Mission To Children ministries is the Beulah Home, a safe place for at-risk children located in India. MTC’s relationship with Beulah Home goes back more than 15 years. When the Beulah director saw MTC’s Character Solutions materials he immediately initiated training for all staff and the older youth so they could train the younger children. Now the children can recite from memory the Bible stories and many verses associated with the character qualities that are such an important part of their spiritual formation of Christlikeness. A “ripple effect” is happening as the children share these concepts with their friends and relatives.

CSI is also being welcomed as a key to reaching across religious walls to those who are not yet followers of Jesus Christ. Various leaders in India report, “Who does not want character for their children? CSI opens conversations in a way that shows respect, reduces hostility, and builds good relationships.”
