Giving to AMBS
"Men and women trained at AMBS are serving congregations and conferences across Canada and the United States--and in many other parts of the world. Because a strong church requires well-prepared leaders, I invite you to invest in the future of the church through your gift to this seminary. That investment will benefit the church for many years in ways we cannot imagine today." - Nelson Kraybill, AMBS president
Donors and the AMBS Annual Fund
Each year, the annual fund brings $1.6 million to AMBS, allowing the seminary to maintain a balanced budget while offering a strong educational program.
Gifts from individuals, congregations and organizations provide 47 percent of the annual operating budget of AMBS. At a seminary, in contrast to a college, tuition covers only part of the costs because seminary classes are smaller and pastoral preparation requires more one-on-one and small group learning.
Our goal is to keep tuition manageable for students. Because of this, we rely on generous people and businesses to keep our programs strong and our budget balanced.
