“How come we give RFKC, Inc. so little?”

For example: Some think of the $300 compliance fee to RFKC, Inc as their ‘tithe’, but for a camp with a budget of $30,000, that represents ONLY 1% of their budget!

Mission agencies and Ministry organizations routinely take 5- 15% for “administration”

I haven’t caught them yet.”
