Class registration fees provide less than one-quarter of the financial resources needed to operate Community Bible Study. Each individual class — as well as the ministry as a whole — is financially supported through generous contributions and donations. All giving to CBS is voluntary and class members who are unable to contribute may freely attend. We never want anyone to feel pressured to give, and registration scholarships are always available. CBS is committed to transparency in all that it does and is a member of the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability (ECFA). Our latest audited financial statements are available online. CBS is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, and your gifts are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.
