Giving Goes Further When We Work Together
The Great Commission isn't the mission of one church or a single believer. It's a collective mission that we fund collectively through the Cooperative Program.
Contribution Reports
Quarterly Giving Statement
A statement of church contributions is mailed to each church treasurer after the close of each quarter and a statement is mailed to the Pastor at the close of the calendar year. You can also request a statement for a particular date range by submitting the form using the button below.
Contribution Form
When contributing by check, please include a completed Contribution Form. We can provide your church with a master copy of the form.
Tax-Exempt Status
If your church contributed to the Cooperative Program through the South Carolina Baptist Convention during the previous calendar year, we can provide you with a 501(c)(3) letter. This letter can be used to prove your exemption from Federal taxes and your Not-For-Profit status with the IRS. Please note that churches are not exempt from paying Sales and Use Tax in South Carolina. Churches may apply for an exemption on items they plan to resale to the public using Form ST-10 and churches may be eligible to limit the amount of sales tax paid on musical instruments and office equipment using Form ST-382. Please visit https://dor.sc.gov for more information.
