People, prayer, donations strengthen Green Lake Gifts for General Support. Financial gifts maintain and improve facilities, provide programming, and fund scholarships for hundreds of pastors, lay persons, youth and adults to come for conferences who would otherwise not have been able to attend. Help restore Roger Williams Inn. Roger Williams Inn is one of our iconic treasures. Built in 1930, its once beautiful exterior has visibly deteriorated and its interior needs renovation. Visit RogerWilliamsInn. com to learn about the hotel’s history and how you can help restore this jewel! Donate a Vehicle. Gently used vehicles help us cover the needs across our 900 acres. The old car, truck or van you didn’t think was worth a trade-in (gently used or even in a little tougher shape) may be put to good use at Green Lake. If you live within a full day’s drive of Green Lake, we’ll pick it up. We can make arrangements for further distances. Planned Giving. Planned Giving is a wonderful way to include Green Lake in your estate plans. There are several ways that you can make a planned gift to Green Lake. One way is through a gift annuity. Stocks. The benefits of donating appreciated securities (either stocks or mutual funds) are tremendous. This is an excellent way to leverage your gift in support of our ministry, while minimizing your tax expense. Matching Gifts. You may have the chance to multiply the money that our ministry receives. Many businesses — from large corporations to regional companies — have matching gift programs set up to encourage their employees to donate money to charities and public service organizations. Donations by mail. Make checks payable to Green Lake Conference Center and send to: Development Department, Green Lake Conference Center. W2511 State Road 23, Green Lake, WI 54941. Pray. Prayer is an important way you can support the work of Green Lake! Pray for God to prepare people for their time at Green Lake and for transformation to occur while they are here. Pray for seminar participants to remember what God did while they were here and for increase in ministry effectiveness when they return home. Pray for God to spread the word about Green Lake as a ministry resource for their spiritual journey.
