  1. Hibiscus Coast ParishJohn Perris Finance Committee Chairperson Church Norms require each Parish to undertake a renewal of its Planned Giving Program every 3 years

  2. Summary of Collections

  3. Allocation of Collections (Every $1 in Building Fund envelope is retained 100% by the Parish for Building & Property Maintenance)

  4. Parish Expenses

  5. Please Consider • The Parish is grateful to those of you who are part of the Planned Giving Program, and we ask that on renewing your 3 yearly commitment, you consider what increase you are able to give • For those who are not part of the Planned Giving Program, we ask that you seriously consider joining either by way of envelopes or by Automatic Payment

  6. What Amount? • What is a reasonable amount to pledge on a weekly basis? • Would you currently spend on any of the following: • $10 for a bottle of wine or 3 cups of coffee? • $12 for a weekly Herald subscription? • $10 on a mobile phone and/or internet? • $15 on a basic Sky subscription?

  7. What You Can Do • The Melbourne Diocese has had success with a campaign asking parishioners to give their 1st hour of labour/pension to the Lord • We would like to think Kiwis are at least as generous as their Aussie counterparts and so that would see: • Someone earning $70,000 p.a. contributing $33 per week (only $22 after the Charitable Donation tax rebate) • Someone earning $50,000 p.a. contributing $24 per week (only $16 after the tax rebate)

  8. What You Can Do • (cont’d) • For a retired couple or those around the minimum wage, it would be $15 per week (only $10 after the tax rebate) • For a single pensioner it would only be $10 per week and therefore less than a dollar a day after the tax rebate • Of course if you are willing and able to contribute above these levels, that would be very much appreciated

  9. Next Steps • You will have found the Planned Renewal Forms on the seats when you arrived • Please take the forms home with you and fill them out over the next couple of weeks • Fold them, then staple or seal them and put in the boxes at the back of each church over the next three weeks • Even if you are unable to increase your contribution or join the Planned Giving Program, please return the form as it will assist our follow up process

  10. Conclusion • And finally, if anyone wishes to discuss this matter, my telephone number is in the Parish newsletter, and you are welcome to contact me Thank you for your kind attention
