In the Fall of 2015, Love INC launched an exciting new program: the Stewards of Hope Money Match Program. Stewards of Hope affords Love INC’s Relational Ministry participants the opportunity to receive matched funding towards savings used to pay off an approved debt or to make a critical household purchase.
In order to reap the benefits of the program, students complete an application to the program and turn in weekly spending records at class to show their progress toward their goal. Once the participant has met his/her part of the savings goal, Love INC staff verify the amount saved and release the matched funds. Payment of matched funds is made directly to debtors and/or vendors once the participant has made payment of their portion.
Julia and her husband embraced the money match challenge, saved $500, and with the help of a dollar for dollar match by Love INC, purchased a reliable washer, dryer, and refrigerator from Krohn’s Appliance Services here in Newberg. They both were so excited by the success of their hard work and are looking forward to seeing how God uses the program to bless their peers walking alongside them in the classes.
Kristina and Jeremiah used their tax return to pay a substantial amount of debt back to a former landlord. Love INC pitched in the maximum contribution and now Kristina and Jeremiah are really close to experiencing complete freedom from their creditor.
As we ceremoniously cut the check for Kristina, she cried and overflowed with gratitude, thanking God and Love INC for the opportunity. The best part—she was excited for others in her class to experience the same success and joy as they strive to reach their goals!
