Each year, we ask God for $17,120 for Brigada’s annual budget. This helps cover the costs for search engines, the websites and servers, the email-sending service (this is $150/month in and of itself), the part-time assistant who publishes the content we write, a few lightweight marketing costs, the anti-spam engine, the ongoing costs to stage the apps (both Android and iOS) and serve up a future for participants like you. Some (maybe half?) of our participants work in places in which they are unlikely to give major gifts, so many give smaller gifts of $15-$20 per year. But we’re grateful for each of those gifts. Others live and work in places in which they can give more — maybe $100 is the standard “True Fan of Brigada” gift. A few have been blessed by God in special ways. As a means of praising God, they have given gifts of $500, $1000, and $2000. Either way, we only ask for a total of exactly $17,120 each year. If more were ever to come in, we would apply it toward the next year. If you’ve ever used an item in Brigada or if you’d like to give on behalf of someone who can’t give personally, just click “Donate” at www.brigada.org, or mail a check payable to Team Expansion (Brigada), 13711 Willow Reed Drive, Louisville, KY 40299. Team Expansion is a 501(c)3 incorporation so, for USA citizens, your gift to Christ by writing a check to Team Expansion is tax-deductible. Thank you, in advance, for your partnership!
And thanks this past month for the folks at ISA. They gave $14.38 because members of Rocky Mountain Chr. Ch., Frederick, CO, purchased trip cancellation insurance through them due to Brigada. They also sent $24.28 because a Brigada reader from Des Moines, IA bought an international policy through them. We’re grateful. God bless ISA!
