Giving with the Mission in Focus
In fulfilling its mission to thoroughly prepare followers of Jesus Christ to serve as pastors, missionaries, educators and lay-leaders, we recognize that the rewards for such service are eternal not financial. Therefore, we seek to minimize the cost to students, keeping tuition rates between 25% to 30% of the true cost of their education. The remainder is made up via the support of God’s people, from one-time, regular to lasting gifts. There are a variety of ways that you can support this ministry.

Keith H. Davey Military Scholarship Matching Gift
VBTS has received a generous, $100,000, Matching Gift for the Keith H. Davey Military Scholarship. This gift will be available for use as soon as matching gifts are received totaling $100,000.
This scholarship was created in honor of the late Keith H. Davey, the founder of the Missions To Military organization, who had a passion to reach the world, and especially the military, with the gospel of Jesus Christ. This scholarship will help prepare those who have served our country in the military to become chaplains, pastors, missionaries, and lay-leaders.
