Donate with SA Toward Hurricane Relief
Join with the NPTS Student Association as we respond to the urgent and ongoing needs of those affected by Hurricane Harvey. Now through September 30, SA invites you to donate online toward domestic disaster response through the Love Mercy Do Justice and Covenant World Relief.
Many lives, both human and animal, are affected by this storm of historic proportions and its aftermath. A number of Covenant congregations have been impacted and are also among the volunteers. SA has identified this ECC initiative as appropriate for standing with our brothers and sisters in Christ in a time of great need. SA has pledged $300 to the above mentioned special fund and now we ask for your participation through individual donations from all seminary students, staff, faculty, and families, whether on campus or at a distance. Please donate prayerfully, freely and generously through this community effort.
To make a donation, go HERE and click “Give Today” under Hurricane Harvey Response. On the payment page, please check the “Current North Park Student” box, created for us as a way to track the donations from NPTS in the convenience of online giving.
