- The Volga-German Society has arranged for memorials to be placed in the new church
for persons or groups that contribute US$500 or more for the construction. The
Volga-German Society (which has no full-time office staff) will specially acknowledge receipt
of amounts of $500 or more, but its check endorsement will be the only acknowledgment of
receipt of smaller amounts.
- Smaller amounts can be sent to the Sunflower Chapter of the American Historical Society
of Germans from Russia (AHSGR), also located in Hays, and their receipt will be
acknowledged.
