Partner with us
Dear Friend and Partner,
Our vision is to see spiritual formation care and resources become vastly more visible and accessible among marginalized and underserved leaders and communities. For this reason, we do not charge professional fees when saying “yes” to teaching workshops, leading retreats, speaking at events, or offering one-on-one spiritual direction and coaching. Instead, every recipient of our services is a beneficiary of someone else’s generosity and presented with the opportunity to bless future others by “paying it forward.” Every gift, regardless of its size, has the full dignity of being a blessing to someone else. Would you prayerfully consider partnering with us? Your gifts allow us to generously and joyfully serve the Lord’s servants.
In Christ’s grace,
David Wu
Founder & Executive Director

Why Donate Stocks?
Donating stocks or mutual funds directly to a 501(c)(3) nonprofit is a tax efficient strategy to give more to charitable causes and save on taxes. When donating stocks, you receive a tax deduction for the fair market value of the stocks, and you avoid the capital gains tax you would have incurred if you had sold the stocks and then made a donation. That means you’re able to donate more, as well as deduct more on your tax return.
Mosaic Formation can receive your charitable stock donations through The Signatry, a donor-advised fund sponsor and Christian ministry seeking to build the kingdom of God by inspiring world-changing generosity. Click on the link below and follow the online instructions to initiate the transfer of stocks from your brokerage account. The Signatry will liquidate the stocks at market value, issue tax receipts to the donor, and transfer the proceeds (at no cost) directly to Mosaic Formation. Email questions to donate@mosaicformation.org.

Why Donate Crypto Directly?
Donating cryptocurrency directly to a 501(c)(3) nonprofit is a tax efficient strategy to give more to charitable causes and save on taxes. The IRS classifies cryptocurrency as property for tax purposes. When donating crypto, you receive a tax deduction for the fair market value of the crypto, and you avoid the capital gains tax you would have incurred if you had sold the crypto and then made a donation. That means you’re able to donate more, as well as deduct more on your tax return.
Mosaic Formation has a nonprofit institutional account with Gemini, one of the most secure and regulated US-based cryptocurrency exchanges in the market. If you would like to donate cryptocurrency, please fill out the form below. We will reply with specific instructions and crypto addresses to send your donation(s). A tax receipt will be sent to the provided email address once the cryptocurrency has been received in Gemini and exchanged for U.S. Dollars. Accepted cryptocurrencies are listed below. Email questions to donate@mosaicformation.org.
Freely Receive, Freely Give (Our Financial Model)
The Freely Receive, Freely Give model not only mimics the language of how Jesus sent his disciples into town to do ministry (“Freely you have received; freely give”—Matthew 10:8), it is highly strategic. It’s a model that is energized by gratitude and generosity, which are transformative forces.
FREELY RECEIVE means that all are welcomed to partake in life-giving resources and services without cost, made possible through someone else’s generosity. We have seen firsthand that this addresses the disparity problem. In Mosaic Formation’s brief three years of existence, we have been able to serve people across different ethnic and cultural backgrounds and socioeconomic class, from nearly every continent around the world.
The second part of the model, FREELY GIVE, takes it a step further and activates generosity. We do not treat anyone as a charity case, which robs people of their dignity. Instead we invite all who have freely received to join in the generosity movement by freely paying forward gifts of any size that will bless future others with the gift of soul care. Jesus loved the widow’s offering of a single mite because it was given generously and in proportion to what she had. Even though she was materially poor, she was spiritually rich, and therefore honored above those who were materially rich, yet spiritually poor.
