SIMPLIFIED GIVING WITH AMPLIFIED IMPACT

THROUGH ACCESS 360

 

With so many needs in our world, where to give can get confusing and overwhelming.

 

Access 360 simplifies the giving process.

 

We encourage you to follow the Biblical model to tithe (10%) first. After that, when you give to Access 360, your contributions will be proportionately divided among 19 projects and partnerships that were prayerfully selected by Helena First Leadership.

 

Each one is focused on either:

  • actively spreading the Gospel through Global Missions 
  • being the light of the world through Local Ministry 
  • investing in our future by developing Next-Gen Leaders.

 

Access 360 amplifies your giving impact!

 

By teaming together we can accomplish far more than any one of us can alone, and have more fun doing it!
 
 
2019 GOAL: $360,000
