Fairview/Bethel College Scholarship Fund
Through a special arrangement between FMC and Bethel College, we have established a scholarship fund at Bethel to help givers and FMC students attending Bethel.
How your gift benefits FMC students Fairview Missionary Church gives up to $1,000 annually to our students attending Bethel College. FMC’s gift of $1,000 is matched by Bethel. That is a total of $2,000 a year from FMC and Bethel. Over a 4-year college experience, that is $8,000. How your gift benefits YOU!
Corporations Indiana Corporations may receive a maximum tax credit of $1000 on gifts of $2000 or more. Corporations may receive 50% credit on gifts, not to exceed 10% of the company’s adjusted gross income tax, or $1000.
Federal Tax Deduction In addition to the Indiana tax credit, a contribution to Bethel College may also result in a federal tax deduction. Generally, to qualify for a federal tax deduction, you must itemize deductions on the Federal Tax Form 1040 (long form). The amount of the deduction is based on your income and the amount of your contribution. The federal tax deduction, unlike the state tax credit, is computed as a reduction in your taxable income and therefore, ultimately, the amount of taxes you owe.
Checks MUST be made payable to BETHEL COLLEGE and given to the FMC office.
