Monthly Giving FAQ

For your convenience, we have put together some of the most commonly asked questions about how CURE’s Monthly Giving works. Of course, if you have a question not covered here, please feel free to call 320-269-2984 or email your question to [email protected].

Q: Once I’ve made an online gift, how can I make changes to my account i.e. change amount, change my credit card number?
A: It’s so easy! All you need to do is drop us a line by phone or email. If we receive your change within the first few days of the month we can make the change effective for that month. If not, it will take effect the next month.

Q: What if I need to stop giving. Can I stop whenever I want?
A: Of course! Just let us know either by phone, mail or email. Your cancellation would take place the same month, or the following month, depending on when we received your notice.

Q: Will I receive verification of my donations for tax purposes?
A: All monthly donors receive an annual statement reflecting the prior year’s total contributions. This statement is mailed by January 31 each year.

Q: When will my credit card first be charged?
A: Charges occur once per month. Your first online gift will be charged to your card on the date that your transaction is made. All subsequent charges will occur on the same date of your first transaction for each of the following months.

If you are not comfortable setting up monthly giving online please download our Donation Form, complete it and mail it to us, or give us a call at 320-269-2985.

Director of Environmental Stewardship

Kelsey Olson (she/her) joined CURE in 2025 as its Director of Environmental Stewardship. As a skilled environmental naturalist, Kelsey’s work focuses broadly on environmental education and advocacy with a keen focus on rural land use and how that use impacts our environment and climate. Working Lands, how land is used to support agriculture and forestry, is a key focus of her work. She brings 15 years’ experience in public communication, environmental education, and rural community engagement – strong communication strategies are core in her work. This includes two terms of service with AmeriCorps in the VISTA program in Oregon and Maryland and a nearly 10-year career as a naturalist followed. She recently worked on communications and marketing for rural economic development.

Kelsey lives in New London, MN, with her young children, husband, dog, and two cats. They enjoy spending time together outside and finding small treasures in nature. Visits to Minneapolis often include visits to one of their favorite historical museums, the Minnesota Swedish Institute. Kelsey enjoys experimenting in the kitchen, whether this is canning local produce, making kombucha, or other treats!
