Children and Youth Mailings
Did you know that the Treasurers Office provides resources for children and junior youth? Aside from the bi-monthly Kids’ story included in the Bahá’í Treasurers bulletin, the Treasurers Office provides a Family Fund Newsletter and a Junior Youth Mailing.
The Family Fund Newsletter, for kids ages 4-7, includes stories and activities that introduce concepts that relate to spiritual aspects of the fund, such as sacrifice, generosity, giving, and more. The Family Fund Newsletter is supplemented by a video series, the Family Fund Newscast, which can be found on the Treasurers Office Vimeo page.
The Youth Mailings consist of stories, quotes, and ideas that inform youths’ service and activities and show how contributing to the Funds is related to the new world envisioned in the Teachings of the Faith.
These are complementary mailings to all registered children. If there are children in your community who would like to be registered, your Assembly can do so through eMembership2.
Children's certificates
The Office of the Treasurer is happy to announce that we have launched the Children’s Certificates initiative. We will be sending out personalized certificates for children up to the age of 14 who contribute directly to the National Fund! Twice a year certificates are mailed out to those children who have directly contributed in the past 6 months. In June, 196 children received certificates for their direct contributions to the National Baha’i Fund in the 2017 fiscal year, and we are looking forward to sending out the next certificates in the December/January time frame.
If the friends would like their children to receive these certificates moving forward, there are a couple options to consider. If they are directly contributing to the National Baha’i Fund through the Online Contribution System, they can add the children’s information in the “Include Household members” section on the bottom of the contribution page. If they are sending in a check, their children’s names and Baha’i ID numbers should be included with the check.
Please share this with the believers in your community and email any questions to bahaitreasurersoffice@usbnc.org or call 847-733-3472.
Kids' Activity available in this issue
We draw your attention to the Treasurers' Notes of this edition of the Baha'i Treasurers Bulletin, which includes a Kids' Activity. Our hope is that you will utilize this resource to assist in connecting the hearts of the children in your community with the sacred institution of the Fund.
