Donations
The Danish Lutheran Church & Cultural Center is not affiliated with, nor do we receive any financial support from the State of Denmark, the Danish National Church (Folkekirken) or the organization Danish Churches Abroad (DSUK). Your generous donations are the livelihood of The Danish Lutheran Church & Cultural Center.
We can only exist and do what we do with your financial support!
Thank you!
Financially we are self-funded and rely entirely on the generous donations and support from members and friends to cover operating expenses (salaries, utilities, outreach, events, etc.) and to maintain our grounds and facilities in good conditions so they are safe and secure for all members, visitors and guests. We encourage you to support us financially as you best can, either on a regular basis or annually as part of your philanthropic donations. Our church and cultural center is a federally recognized non-profit 503(c)(3) religious organization and your donations are tax deductible.
