$10,000 Matching Challenge

Many of you know that the Richmond Study Center has been working hard to raise support levels so that we can acquire a much anticipated Resource Center for UR students and the Greater Richmond community.  Well, we have some great news!

What's the good news?  We have four donors who have come together to issue a $10,000 matching challenge to help us raise that support!  What is the challenge?  These donors have told us that once we obtain 100 new pledges of $50/month (covering the recurring costs of the Resource Center), they will at that time give a combined gift to the Richmond Study Center totaling $10,000!  This gift not only serves as an incentive to those who might pledge $50/month (such a pledge would have a notable effect beyond itself!) but also would enable us to cover the start-up costs for the Resource Center.

What's the Resource Center?  Having a Resource Center will open up a whole new world for the Richmond Study Center.  This will be a place where students and Richmonders can come and check out or purchase various resources (books, audio books, videos, etc.) relating to worldview, apologetics, culture and theology.  It will also be a place of hospitality (with coffee, etc.) where people can come and explore, ask questions, enter into discussions, and study.  We will also have a multi-layered event calendar, including speaking events from professors and others, various courses, video showings, movie and discussion times, and a children's reading time.  The Resource Center will be a lively and meaningful resource for students and Richmonders alike!

What do you want me to do?  For this to happen, we need 100 new people to pledge $50/month.  We want to ask you to consider being one of those people!  If you are already supporting, prayerfully consider if you might increase your pledge to help us meet our goal.  Once this happens, it's a whole new world for the Richmond Study Center and for the students and community we serve!
