Monthly

Maestro Club Members can easily maintain continuity of giving at an affordable level each month rather than making one larger annual contribution. You can make a tax-deductible monthly donation via bank account or credit card.

Monthly giving is not only easy on the pocketbook, it also helps GO with financial planning by providing a steady monthly income.

Just select monthly under donation frequency OR contact us at 239-529-3925 to set up your recurring monthly donation.
