Pillars of ETBU is a monthly giving program. Members make a difference, every single month.
In the same way that the pillars provide strength and support to the various buildings on campus, members of the Pillars of ETBU bolster and fortify the Christ-centered mission and on-going work of the University through monthly giving. Pillars can be found on numerous buildings across the ETBU campus, including Marshall Hall, Craig Hall, H.D. Bruce Hall Feagin Hall, Centennial Hall, Murphy Science, Jarrett Library, and the Bennett Student Commons.
Who are Pillars of ETBU?
The Pillars of ETBU are East Texas Baptist University’s group of core, faithful, and committed monthly donors.
How it works:
East Texas Baptist University’s monthly giving program allows your gift to be deducted monthly from your debit card, credit card, or drafted from your bank account. ETBU will process this secure transaction at the beginning of each month. At the end of the year, you’ll receive a single summary of your contributions, including a tax receipt. You remain in control - cancel or alter your gift any time by calling us at 903.923.2071 or emailing advancement@etbu.edu
