Fundraising
August 14, 2008
We estimate that the cost for three years operation at our present level will be $150,000. So far we have raised about $62,000 of that amount. We hope to extend our lease well beyond April 1, 2010, do some remodeling of our space to make for one larger meeting room, and hire an additional part-time person. So we will need your continued support. Friend of the Center memberships pay a part of this cost but we also need additional pledges and donations. A pledge form is linked to this website. Please consider a pledge of at least $28 per month which over a 3-year period will equal more than $1000. Of course, larger donations would be greatly appreciated as would any amount that you can fit into your budget. One time donations are gladly accepted if you feel you don’t want to make a future obligation. If you work for a company that gives matching gifts to not-for-profit organizations, please fill out the proper paperwork for that. How can you make a pledge or donation?
1. Fill out the pledge form and send it to Reba Boyd Wooden, Executive Director, Center for Inquiry Indiana, 350 Canal Walk, Suite A, Indianapolis, IN 46202.
2. If you do online banking, it is easy to set up a monthly payment to CFI Transnational, PO Box 741, Amherst, NY 14226. Be sure to put that it is for Center for Inquiry Indiana in the memo line. You should also fill out a pledge form and send it to me.
3. If you have already made a pledge but would like to increase it, that would be great.We want to continue to promote science, reason, and freedom of inquiry at the crossroads of America. We want to keep our home and we want to continue to grow and expand but we need your help to do this.
Thank you for your support, Reba Boyd Wooden, Executive DirectorCenter for Inquiry Indiana
