How You Can Help
Prayer
ICBM
could not survive without the prayers of its friends. If we ask God for
His power and protection and guidance as we strive to do His will
through ICBM, we can rest assured that the Mission will continue to
serve those whom it is called to serve. So, we sincerely need your
prayers, not only for the Mission, but for all the blind in the world -
so that they might all read the Gospel of Christ.
Regular
Financial Support
ICBM
depends upon the regular gifts of churches and individuals worldwide.
This regular support may take the form of monthly contributions, or
gifts on a quarterly or annual basis. While we certainly need as much
funding as possible, we also need the consistency of cash flow. Thus, we
do very much appreciate our regular supporters, for through their
commitments we can pay our bills timely.
Ten Dollar
Call" Program
Periodically, ICBM issues a "call" to participating supporters to
contribute only ten dollars toward production costs. This "ten dollar
call" program is entitled THE PAPER NULL, and it appeals mainly to
individuals who desire to help when needed but are unable to commit to
regular monthly support. Proceeds from the call are used to maintain a
modest reservoir for costly braille printing.
Structured
Giving
Supporters can also give to ICBM in creative ways. Charitable annuities,
gifts of appreciated assets, charitable remainder or charitable leads
trusts, and life insurance are only a few methods which can be used to
give generously while also increasing flexibility and improving tax
situations. ICBM is able to help maximize your stewardship through any
number of these creative structured giving methods. Please call for more
information or to schedule an appointment.
Connections
ICBM needs your help
to expand its connections to those who might need its services. If you
know of any blind or visually impaired individuals, please help them by
giving us their names and addresses so we can include them on our
mailing list. We also try to make connections with potential supporters
and clientele through church presentations, camps, conventions, VBS
weeks, and other opportunities to present the Mission. We would deeply
appreciate the opportunity to present our work to your church or
organization soon! Please contact us today. |
