This document outlines an annual individual giving model for camp meeting offerings with six giving categories based on one's occupation and income level. Category A consists of high-income individuals such as managers, doctors, and commissioners with an annual goal of $1,000. Lower categories have progressively lower annual goals, with category F for retirees, pensioners, and unemployed adults at $100 and category G for unemployed youths and children at $50. The biblical basis provided encourages believers to give according to God's blessings and their ability to support the church's work.

During camp meetings, the Israelites were not to “appear before the Lord empty-handed. Every man … [was to] give as he is able, according to the blessing of the Lord your God, which He has given you” (Deut. 16:16-17).” At these special seasons, they were to bring gifts, freewill offerings, and thank offerings unto the Lord according as He had blessed them” (Ellen G. White, Testimonies for the Church, Vol. 5, 573). God expects no less from us today. “There is a means enough in the hands of believers to amply sustain the work, in all its departments, without embarrassing any, if all would bear their proportional part” (Ellen G. White, Testimonies for the church, Vol. 3, p. 410).
