Why Give?
When you become a fully devoted follower of Jesus, you will be marked by generosity. As followers of Christ, it is our call to give faithfully and sacrificially. We begin by tithing, which means giving 10% of our income.
We are also called to go beyond that 10%, to expand what God is doing locally and globally through offerings. At times through the year, we designate a time for our congregants to give to other causes. Here at ccdelco, we support 18 various ministry partners to ripple their effect for the Gospel.
When you give to ccdelco, you are supporting so many others. We thank you for your faithfulness to God and pray God's blessing to you.

This is one of the best kept secrets: Pennsylvania offers an Educational Income Tax Credit that offers huge incentives to businesses (from small LLCs to major corporations) and individuals who use their tax credit towards education. Check out this video here to learn more about the program and how Contributions through EITC serve as a scholarship for under-resourced students that qualify at Innovate Academy. By designating your tax dollars to be used in this way, lives are changed... the life of the student receiving the scholarship, their family, and even their community.
To learn more, set up a call with Innovate’s Development Strategist, Terry Doyle by calling 610-505-7047 or emailing tdoyle@innovateacademy.com.
