Dear members, friends and companions,
For many years, we have supported people on their personal and professional journeys. Over the past 15 years, we have had the privilege of helping countless clients and members obtain honorary titles across a wide range of professional fields and areas of life.
The many positive responses, accounts of personal experiences, and individual stories that have reached us during this time demonstrate just how valuable this recognition is to people. It represents appreciation, esteem, and the visibility of exceptional achievements, experiences, and life paths.
Today, we are turning to you with a personal request.
Unfortunately, our church is currently facing a difficult financial situation. A key factor in this is an unexpected VAT back-payment covering the past five years, amounting to 12%. This payment significantly exceeds our financial reserves and presents us with a major challenge. To meet this obligation, we have agreed on an installment plan with the tax authorities, which will severely limit our financial resources for the foreseeable future.
In addition, there are ongoing operating costs, which have also risen steadily for our church. Our goal is to secure the long-term future of the California Church and University Institute and to be able to continue and further expand our work.
In doing so, we wish to uphold an important principle: our prices should remain stable in the future. We have not raised our prices a single time in over 15 years. We intend to keep it that way so that our offerings remain accessible and affordable for as many people as possible.
That is why we are asking for your support today.
This request is expressly directed only at those who can afford to donate without facing financial hardship. Please do not donate if doing so would cause you financial difficulties or require you to forgo essentials. No one should feel obligated; any support should be given entirely voluntarily and out of personal conviction.
The donations received will be used primarily to cover our ongoing operating costs and to manage the current financial burden caused by the unexpected additional payment. In doing so, you are making a vital contribution to securing the future of our church and enabling its continued development.
If you have valued our work over the past 15 years, if you have personally benefited from what we offer, or if you would like to support our community, we would greatly appreciate your help.
You can easily and securely make a voluntary donation to us using the PayPal or bank transfer donation buttons below.
