Donating to CRTS
CRTS accepts donations to the following funds:
General Fund
Donations sent to the General Fund are used for the day-to-day operations of the seminary.
Library Fund
The CRTS Library is funded primarily by the Women's Saving Action (WSA), a group that raises money specifically for the operation of the library. Donations for the library should be directed to the WSA. Please see their webpage here for more information.
Partnership in the Gospel Campaign
Through the Partnership in the Gospel Campaign, CRTS has set out to raise funds for the renovation and maintenance of our building. While we have met our goal for this campaign, due to rising costs, we expect some cost overruns on the project and therefore continue to accept donations for this cause.
Foreign Student Bursary Fund
The purpose of the Foreign Student Bursary Fund is to provide the necessary financial assistance to qualified foreign students who seek a Reformed theological education who come from federations that are unable to provide sufficient support.
Faber-Holwerda Fund
The purpose of the Faber-Holwerda Fund is to provide assistance to current students with special financial needs.
Selles Fund
The Selles Fund administers the Selles Book Prize which consists of a public presentation of a certificate and a cheque to a graduating student whose performance in the New Testament Studies has been outstanding throughout this course of studies at the Theological Seminary, and who shows exceptional promise in the field of New Testament Studies.
Publication Foundation
The Publication Foundation seeks to publish and disseminate scholarly writings of the Faculty and other Reformed scholars.
