Foundation trustees, appointed by the congregation council, have the financial responsibility to preserve donated gifts and to make careful investment decisions which will annually produce earnings.  It is with these investments, the foundation can bring support to new and innovative programs to continue on God’s Mission.

The Christ the King Foundation continues to work diligently to ensure that donations are used as requested by the benefactor. By doing so, we proudly represent the legacy of these donors through local and global actions.
