Presbyterian Men
“Serving
Christ 24/7/365”
The National Council of Presbyterian Men’s “Plan
for Giving Program” is designed to provide a number
of options for Presbyterian men to make tax-deductible
donations that will allow the Presbyterian Men’s
organization to become “self
sufficient” in
the 21st century. There are three phases in the approved
plan.
Phase I
Phase I would be completed
when the invested funds reached $3 million to $5 million,
an
amount sufficient to yield
interest income of approximately $150,000 per year. This
would provide funds for:
- An Administrative Director for NCPM, Inc.
- Publishing “Presbyterian
Men in Action”
- Providing administrative support, supplies and equipment
Phase II
Phase II would be completed with additional gifts of $2
million to $3 million, which would provide an additional
$110,000 in possible interest income. These funds would
be used for:
- An Assistant Administrative Director
- Expanded mission support
- Subsidizing church chartering
- Expanding the annual Gathering of Presbyterian Men
Phase III
Phase III involves estimated gifts of $15 million to $25
million from “Legacy Giving”. Income from these
gifts would be used for:
- Printing and distributing men’s program resources
- Expanding
funding for the Annual Gathering of the Presbyterian
Men
- Expanding membership to all churches
- Expanding the Mentoring and Tutoring Program
- Subsidizing the Churchman of the Year Program
- Implementing all NCPM, Inc. priorities
Levels of Giving
There are nine levels of giving open to Presbyterian men
and each giving level will be recognized annually with
an appropriate award.

The urgent and immediate need is for 3,000 men to give $1,000 or more as soon
as possible to provide funding for an Administrative Director and the other
projects listed under Phase I of the plan.
These giving program options allow all men to become involved
without causing a hardship. You may participate in this
program by giving, one penny a day, ten cents a day, a
dollar for each year of your birthday, or an immediate
gift at any level. Get into the habit of giving as you “Serve
Christ 24/7/365.”
