Where would you like to begin?
One partnership. The whole convention.
GIVE is the convention’s unified giving program. One partnership supports the boards, auxiliaries and commissions, the Retreat Center, Simmons College of Kentucky, and missions at home and abroad.
“Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give.”
2 Corinthians 9:7 (NIV)

There is nothing you need to do
If you are enrolled in recurring monthly giving, your gift continues automatically on the new platform. You do not need to re-enrol or give again.
If your card has expired or changed, open your partnership to reinstate it:
On the new platform you can update your own card, switch to ACH e-check, change your amount and get receipts by email.
I just want to donate
Give once, any amount

Frequently Asked Questions
Which partnership should I choose?
Pick the one that matches who is giving — individual, church, association or state convention. The amount for each is listed under Choose your partnership above, and you enrol online in a few minutes.
What happens after I join?
You receive a receipt by email for every gift, and partner updates and news from across the convention year. You can sign in to the giving platform at any time to change your amount, update a card or switch to ACH.
Can friends and family outside NBCA become GIVE Partners?
Yes. Anyone who wishes to support the mission of the convention may become a GIVE Partner.
How do I update a changed credit or debit card?
You can update it yourself on the giving platform. Open your partnership, sign in to your account and change the payment method — there is no need to contact the office.
Can I join shortly before an annual meeting?
Yes, though partner benefits require a record of consecutive payments. The 2023 FAQ states at least three consecutive GIVE payments.
If my church participates, must the pastor join individually?
Church and individual partnerships are separate. Confirmation of current policy is pending from the national office.
Are payments recurring and automatic?
Yes. Through the giving platform you can set a recurring gift monthly, semi-annually or annually, or make a one-time gift instead — paying by card, by ACH e-check or by mail.
May I give more than the standard amount?
Yes. Higher and custom amounts are accepted at every partnership level.
How do I mail a GIVE payment?
Mail your payment with the applicable GIVE Partnership form to the Office of the Treasurer at the address on this page.
NBCA is a tax-exempt nonprofit under Internal Revenue Code section 501(c)(3); charitable donations are deductible to the extent allowed by law.
