HOW TO MAKE GIFTS TO RBC BY TEXTING

RBC now participates in a program, Text2Give, to supplement our on-line giving system. Text2Give allows you to make gifts by texting.

Here's how it works:

• Text "Register" to 610-890-5200.

• Click the link in the response.

• Next, enter your contact information in the form.

• Then select your preferred payment method, insert your gift limit (maximum amount that can be given per text from your phone), and click Submit.

• Review the info and either click "Return to Input Screen" to correct, or "Complete Registration".

• Thereafter, each time you want to give, you'll just text the amount of your gift amount to 610-890-5200, and when you give, you'll get a confirmation with a link to designate your gift.

As with on-line giving through RBC's website, you now have 10 choices for how you can direct your gifts to the missions of RBC, American Baptist Churches, and our local food pantry (if not designated, gifts go to RBC's general fund to pay our budgeted expenses).

Be aware that each gift by ACH (i.e., where the funds are drawn from your checking account) costs RBC 25 cents, while each gift made by credit card costs RBC 35 cents + 2.19% of the amount charged, so paying by ACH results in more of your gift going to RBC.

When you give by texting, you'll be texted confirmation, and will be able to request correction of any errors that you made by texting "Refund" or "Void" to the 610-890-5200 phone number.

You'll also be able to text "Update" to that number to update your info.

If you have any questions on Text2Give, on-line giving, or RBC's finances, please contact RBC's Treasurer
