Each year, LAUMC touches the lives of thousands of families and individuals in our community and across the globe by giving our time, money, and hope. Your support makes our vision of
Touching Heaven, Changing Earth a reality!
There are many ways to support the ministries of LAUMC:
Place your gift in the Sunday offering plate.
Make checks payable to LAUMC. If you would like to receive contribution credit for a cash gift, use a green offering envelope and be sure to write your name and address clearly. Unless otherwise noted, all gifts are credited to the church Operating Fund. All special designations should be written on the memo line of your check.
Mail or bring your gift to the church office.
Attn: Finance Department
655 Magdalena Avenue
Los Altos, CA 94024
Gifts received between Sundays are posted in the next Sunday's deposit.
Sign up for ACH (Automatic Clearing House) direct payments to the church.
ACH payments are an easy and environmentally friendly way to give to the church monthly. Scheduled ACH transactions are automatically transferred from your bank account to the church's bank account. If you would like to set this up, please contact us to obtain a form: (650-948-1083 x126).
Contribute a gift of stock.
For more information, see the
Stock Gifts page. Please notify the finance department before you initiate a stock transfer. Stock gifts are listed in the miscellaneous column of your Statement of Giving from the church.
Contribute a gift from your Charitable Gift Fund or IRA.
Gifts of this nature need to be set up with your financial professional. We are happy to assist if you need information about the church Tax ID or tax-exempt status, (650-948-1083). Charitable gifts and IRA gifts are listed in the miscellaneous column of your Statement of Giving from the church.
Contribute a gift-in-kind.
Non-cash gifts, such as office equipment, supplies for health kits, digital cameras, musical instruments, etc, are considered gifts-in-kind and are very much appreciated. The church will provide a letter stating the nature of the gift for all gifts-in-kind. Please note that gift-in-kind letters are not issued for items purchased for the holiday Angel Tree or mission trip supplies. Please notify the church office if you intend to give a gift-in-kind and would like a letter of acknowledgement. Receipts of your purchases are not necessary, as it is the donor's responsibility to assess and document the value of the gift for tax purposes. Gifts-in-kind are not included on your Statement of Giving from the church.
