Partners for the Future

Campaign Background and Rationale

by Dr. Jeff P. Iorg, GGBTS president

We are embarked on a fundraising campaign that has potential to significantly increase our ability to train leaders for churches in the West and around the world.

It’s called “Partners for the Future” and our goal is to raise $13 million over a five-year period. This special publication provides the details of the campaign and various ways you can be involved.

Why a fundraising campaign?

While the foundation of our support is the Cooperative Program, and we are indebted to the churches who give through it, the CP only provides 36 percent of the seminary’s total income. Five percent comes from investments, 19 percent from ancillary sources (bookstore, child development center, student rent), and 40 percent comes from tuition and gifts. As we strive to keep the cost of seminary low for students, we need partners to step up and make the difference. We are working hard to keep tuition as affordable as possible so as many potential effective leaders as possible can attend Golden Gate Seminary.

What’s the money for?

The $13 million raised through this campaign will be used for additional faculty, new and renovated student housing, operational needs, distance learning systems, increased library holdings, academic equipment, facility renovation, and additional academic chairs and schools of the Seminary.

Golden Gate Seminary has a strong heritage of training effective leaders for churches throughout the vast expanses of the West and beyond. As you support the “Partners for the Future” campaign, you have the privilege of continuing that heritage into the future. The “Partners for the Future” campaign will help provide more effective leaders who accelerate the fulfillment of the Great Commission in the West and the world, make theological education accessible to more leaders, and provide endowments for long-term financial security.

It is an exciting challenge, and one we are ready and eager to meet. As God enables us to accomplish these plans, we will become the leading conservative, evangelical seminary in the West with an influence across the Pacific Rim.
