Ways to Give

Vision for Champions

We invite you to join the Vision for Champions Team and of the Christ-centered mission of DBU Baseball. Your gift will make the difference in the lives many athletes, students, adults and children in our communities as they see Christ lived out through the game of baseball.

Consider these giving options, and download our contribution form (91KB PDF) today!

Cash Gifts

A cash donation is an easy way to show your support. Your immediate gift can be made in these ways: cash or check, credit card (Visa and MasterCard), or matching employer gifts.

Gift Pledge

A pledge is a formal statement of intention to make a gift to DBU during the next five years. Most often, an immediate lead gift is followed by regular, periodic payments. This method may allow you to give more generously than a one-year gift may afford.

Gifts of Appreciated Property

Donating appreciated property — securities or real estate — often provides even greater tax benefits than a cash gift of equal value. We will be happy to discuss the details with you.

Endowments

A major gift endowment is an enduring testament to your generosity. Your donation is wisely invested to generate income, ensuring predictable funding for scholarships and other recurring needs.

Athletes of the Month

Kayla Marshall

Cheerleading

Kayla Marshall is the Female Athlete Spotlight for the month of March. Marshall is a junior from Garland, Texas and is a member of the 2009-2010 Patriot Cheerleading Squad.

Marshall is a graduate from Dallas Christian School in Garland, Texas and is currently in her second year at DBU as a Patriot Cheerleader. She has excelled both on the court as a cheerleader and in the classroom as a student. Her performances have granted her the opportunity to graduate early with a bachelor degree in psychology in August of 2010 to begin her career as a Children’s Minister.

While at DBU, Kayla has had a heart for serving the community. She has given her time and efforts as an avid contributor in the local community by serving in the children’s ministry at both the Fellowship First Baptist Church in Royce City, Texas, and New Liberty Baptist Church in Garland, Texas for the past two years.

Marshall has also participated in many community service projects with the Patriot Cheerleaders including partnering with First Baptist Church in Canton, Texas to provide child care for a local women’s ministry, participating in the DFW Greet the Troops program, and conducting cheerleading clinics while on the DBU Global Sports Mission Initiative mission trip to Seoul, South Korea in 2009.

“Kayla has been a great contributor to the Patriot Cheer Team. She has served as a base and a back-spot and has excelled in both roles for a stunt group. Kayla has the heart of a servant; she is using her love for children as a ministry for the Lord. Seeing her serve with the team at different service projects has been such a blessing. Her love and sweet spirit are contagious and bless everyone she comes in contact with. Kayla will be missed in this upcoming year, but we have been grateful to have her part of the team these last two years,” said Head Cheer Coach Skyla Alvarado.

Jordan McGowen
