Cooperative Program
A unified giving plan that supports Southern Baptist missions and ministries
The Cooperative Program is the Southern Baptist Convention’s financial fuel for reaching every person for Jesus Christ in every town, every city, every state, and every nation.
How does the Cooperative Program work?
State, national, and global funding starts with your gift.
-
You give your tithes and offerings to your local church.
-
Your church decides how much of their budget will be sent to the Cooperative Program.
-
Each year, SCBI determines which funds remain in the Indiana budget and how much will go to the SBC.
-
The Cooperative Program then distributes funds back to state, national, and global mission work, institutions, and initiatives across the SBC.
