Many companies offer matching gifts on your behalf. A matching gift is when a business or corporation chooses to contribute to organizations their employees support. It is a powerful way to increase the impact of your giving. You can apply for a matching gift through your company's Human Resources department. It can take a few weeks or a few months for the entire matching gift process to be completed.

Your giving will help make disciples and make a difference
all over West Georgia.
We have a lot of money and resources to raise. Can you help? Would you consider giving financially or resources to the work of city outreach and community renewal?
When you give to Seeking the City, you help support the mission of inspiring and mobilizing churches to make disciples by taking the gospel where Jesus is not known in West Georgia. We are grateful for your support.
Financially, we are asking our potential mission partners to consider committing to ongoing financial support by scheduling your recurring giving contributions to be given weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, bi-monthly, quarterly or annually. Or you can give a one-time gift to help offset some of our costs.
