Sustainable Giving

Endowment funds help provide a base for congregational needs. Each fund gives a percentage of its assets to CBT each year, thereby providing a stream of income to meet a particular need. All of our endowment funds can be funded with gifts during one’s lifetime (cash, appreciated securities, retirement accounts, etc.), or with a gift in one’s will or estate plans. To donate to any of these funds, please talk with either the Endowment or Funds Development chair. The CBT office at 856-983-8090 can help connect you to these people.
