Event Information

Does inviting someone to give to your organization feel like an unnatural conversation? Are you timid about asking people to give financially? Does your work with major givers feel transactional? It doesn’t have to be this way.  

Gather with fundraising peers at this Mission Increase workshop. Together, you will learn how to transform the way you invite people to give so that there is greater ownership in your cause.  

Outcomes: 

• Understand the biblical principles that inform how we invite people to give 
• Articulate your mission and vision in a compelling way
• Practice inviting someone to give

If you or anyone on your team has been apprehensive about inviting financial gifts, don’t miss out!  
This workshop will benefit executive directors, development staff, board members – or anyone who has personal relationships with champions. Register today! 

Register Now! It is encouraging to gather with other ministry leaders and learn in community. Join us in Room 2225 of the Weekly Building. Bring your own coffee or beverage. Water and handouts are provided! (if your plans change after you register, please unregister for the event.)
