To mail donations via check to The Church Mouse, either for the Back Pack Ministry or for the Church Mouse itself, send checks made out to :
The Church Mouse

As many know, the Church Mouse takes care of the Back Pack Ministry using a separate bank account, so if you write a check for the Back Pack Ministry, make it out to “The Church Mouse”, but in the memo line write “Back Pack Ministry”, your donation will be placed into the correct account.
If anyone would like to only donate to The Church Mouse, make your check out to “The Church Mouse” and then in the memo line just put “Church Mouse Donation”. We want to make sure your donation goes into the correct account. Do not make your check out to CLUMC if you want it to go to The Church Mouse.
The Church Mouse is a non-profit organization, so your donations are tax deductible. Also, you can always donate by putting your donation for The Mouse in the offering plate at CLUMC, they will make sure we get it. We at The Church Mouse appreciate your support for this special ministry.”
