Frequently Asked QuestionsFor information on becoming a full-day or half-day partner: For information on becoming a business partner: How is my financial contribution used? The radio ministry requires funding for salaries, electricity, new equipment, and maintenance of existing equipment, phone lines, and bandwidth for Internet streaming, studio equipment, new services, towers, transmitters, translators, antennas and music licensing. How can I help? Life 107.1 relies on listener support at a variety of levels. Here are some suggested giving levels we have put together: Full Day Partner – $1500 or $125 per month You can make your gift online today. Is my contribution Tax Deductible? Yes! You will receive a quarterly receipt for your records. What is the difference between a pledge and a gift? A gift is immediate (cash, credit card, check). A pledge is a faith promise: an agreement between you and the Lord that, as He provides, you will fulfill your commitment to financially support this radio ministry. What is “TFN” and how does it work? TFN stands for “‘Til Further Notice” and it’s an ongoing commitment to financially support the radio ministry for an indefinite period of time. This requires that you let us know that you want to be a TFN donor via electronic transfer or credit card. Your signature is required. This can be handled through paperwork, or on the web. This cannot be handled on the phone. What is automatic monthly giving (auto giving) and how does it work? It is an ongoing monthly withdrawal from your bank account via Automated Clearing House (ACH), formerly Electronic Funds Transfer (TFN) or a monthly charge to your credit card for a period of time, or indefinitely. If I make a pledge commitment, do you send me a confirmation? Yes. If I make a TFN commitment, do you send me a confirmation? Yes. If I make a gift, do you send me a confirmation? We will send you a thank-you gift receipt for your giving. How does the Employer Matching Funds program work? Employer Matching Funds involves your employer “matching” the financial contribution you make to the radio ministry (Click Here for More information on Employer Matching Funds) Do people really “come to Jesus” because of the radio ministry? Yes! The Lord can choose any means He wishes to change a person’s heart. Often, He has used the radio ministry of Life 107.1. Studies have shown that as many as 30% of our listeners have not yet made a decision to follow Jesus. Do you really need my financial support? Yes! We do not air commercials, so we rely on the generosity of our listeners to carry out the Lord’s work. Do you need my financial support if I gave last year? Yes. Our budget is annual, not eternal. What if I can not afford to support the radio ministry financially? We understand that situations change from time to time. We would, however, encourage you to find a level of support that works for your family’s budget. Some listeners choose to match their entertainment – such as restaurants, or coffee shops – with an equal contribution to the radio ministry. What if I am supporting another ministry? It is a blessing to know that you are supporting another faith-based ministry. It is our prayer that you would support Life 107.1 as well, to reach the lost with a message of hope and encouragement. |
