FirstGiving


You can now use the Internet to raise money for Bethany Christian Services. Thanks to a partnership with Firstgiving, we can assure people that raising money online is quick, easy, and safe.

In less than 20 minutes, you can set up your own web page on Firstgiving’s website, that will allow friends, family members, or anyone else you know to make a financial gift to Bethany. You can also contact potential donors through e-mail to tell them about your new web page, and they can then go online and place a secure, online gift with a credit or debit card.

Many of the most successful Firstgiving fund-raising pages involve some sort of an event or activity. Examples include bicycle riding, walking, running, being in a dunk tank, or even skydiving. You may want to select an activity that interests you and ask your friends to sponsor you or to make a gift to help you accomplish your goal.

Firstgiving is a partner that has enabled more than 1 million people to raise more than $75 million for thousands of nonprofits around the world. A small portion of each gift covers credit card and processing fees, but more than 90% of your gift will go directly to helping Bethany serve children in your community and around the world.
