The expenses of Christian Life Ministries are funded by four primary sources:
1. Fundraising provides 40-45% of our annual income. We have had a variety of fundraisers over the years including; Golf Tournaments, Raffles for a trip to the Cayman Islands or a Golf
Weekend get-a-way, a banquet style Vision Dinner, etc... We are always looking for fun
and new ways to raise funds and celebrate what God is doing in our ministry.
2. Income from classes and the sale of materials accounts for approximately 10% of our annual income.
3. Each counselor at CLM contributes a portion of their income monthly to help with ministry expenses. Those counseling full-time contribute $500 and part-time counselors contribute $250. These funds account for approximately 35% of CLM's annual income.
4. The remaining 10-15% of our annual income is provided by the monthly, quarterly or annual giving from generous individuals who believe in and desire to promote the ministry of Christian Life Ministries.
Each counselor at CLM is funded through two sources.
1. Each counselor is responsible for raising a support base much like overseas missionaries. This base is their primary income.
2. The second income source comes from counseling fees. Since the policy of CLM is to have no set fee for counseling but operate on a donation basis, this source of income can fluctuate greatly. If a counselor is sick, on vacation, on holiday leave or a ministry project the counseling fees are not received. Each counselor is responsible for both halves of their social security, the monthly CLM contribution, and their own expenses including insurances. Because of these factors each counselor's support base is crucial.
The front office (non-counseling) staff is paid an hourly wage, which may be supplemented by raising a support base as well. All are part-time and also receive no "benefits."
