JESUS DOLLAR DRIVE

Thank you to all who participate in the Jesus Dollar Drive. A special thank you goes to Wanda Ellis for inspiring the fundraiser.

   Watch Now!

We are now collecting:

G for God
J for Jesus
K for King of Kings
L for Lord

In 2019 our supporters collected over 1,800 Jesus Dollars. We are setting a goal of 2,021 Jesus Dollars for the year 2021. Help us meet our goal!

The Jesus Dollar Drive is still going strong at Tim's Gift. Check your pockets daily. If you have a one dollar bill with a G, J, K, or L on it, drop it off at Tim's Gift or mail it to us.  You could win a FREE Domino’s pizza. One winner will be selected each month. Who will be the next to join the fun and donate a dollar? 

WHAT IS A JESUS DOLLAR?

A Jesus Dollar is a $1 bill with a J in the first digit of the serial number and a J in the seal to the left of President Washington’s face.

HOW IT HAS EVOLVED…

In 2016 we quickly found out how hard Jesus dollars were to find. But, it was such a success we decided to continue the excitement. In 2017 we  made a change and began collecting King of Kings dollars, $1 bills with a K. Over time
supporters creatively came up with names for other letters. Therefore, beginning in 2019 we started collecting G, J, K, and L for God, Jesus, King of Kings, and Lord. BTW…we will not reject any dollars you send. LOL

Receiving from around the USA…and world!

We have an awesome friend of Tim’s Gift, Kristin Burnett, who has a mission to support one nonprofit in all 50 states after receiving a heart transplant. North Carolina was Kristin’s 3rd state to research when she came upon the Tim’s Gift website. After reading and learning more about what we do, Kristin chose Tim’s Gift to support for her NC nonprofit. Kristin travels for her job and spreads the word of GOD through Tim’s Gift’s Jesus dollar drive. Kristin sends pictures of the people who have found Jesus dollars and you can see them too!

HOW WILL THE JESUS DOLLARS BE USED?

The dollars donated to Tim’s Gift’s Jesus Dollar Drive will be used to increase and maintain storage space used for the medical equipment and supplies donated to Tim’s Gift. The G, J, K, and L dollars will help Tim’s Gift be prepared when the need arises to make repairs or add storage to keep equipment and supplies clean, safe, and dry. Any excess monies will go to The Hope Project Fund which helps people with medical expenses. Hope Project funds are generated through our Hope Project Golf Tournament.  

HOW THE JESUS DOLLAR DRIVE GOT STARTED…

In 2016 Tim's Gift received our first Jesus dollar from Wanda Ellis. She explained what it was and how a fellowship building was funded by Jesus dollars.

A few days after Wanda came into Tim’s Gift Ms. Becky and Jennifer were talking about the Jesus Dollar.  Jennifer looked at the one dollar she had in her pocket and to their surprise it was a Jesus dollar! Jennifer had never seen one or heard of a Jesus dollar, and there it was; she had one in her own pocket. Written across the top was "PEACE... more than enough income." Becky and Jennifer knew it was a sign, so they decided to use the 2 Jesus dollars to do something good and encourage others to be a part of our vision...inspired by Wanda, Jennifer’s Jesus dollar with message about peace being more important than money, and the need for enclosed storage space at TIm's Gift.

With the initial $1 we were able to start this fun, exciting fundraiser. Throughout 2016 (mid Mar-Dec) we collected 2,415 Jesus dollars from supporters.

Thank you for caring, sharing, and giving dollars with a G for God, J for Jesus, K for King of kings, & L  for Lord, When everyone gathers together to spread the love of God with only one dollar, your efforts are also helping those needing assistance with medical expenses locally. What a blessing!
