Generosity that stays in Lawrence.

Riverbend is funded entirely by the people who call it home. Every gift keeps the lights on, the pantry stocked and the kids’ rooms safe, and we publish where every dollar goes.

Giving questions

Is my gift tax-deductible?

Yes. Riverbend Church is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit. You’ll get an email receipt for every gift and an annual statement each January.

How do I change or cancel a recurring gift?

Every receipt has a link to manage your giving. You can change the amount, the date or the fund, or cancel at any time. Or email our operations team and we’ll do it for you.

Should I give if I’m new?

Please don’t feel you need to. We’d much rather you come, listen and get to know us. Giving is a response for people who call Riverbend home.
