Event Information

A comprehensive fundraising plan does more than project income, it creates a roadmap for growing champions in your cause and aligning every activity with God's calling for your ministry. This workshop helps you create or strengthen a fundraising plan that honors God as the owner of all resources while stewarding your ministry's calling with wisdom and intentionality. You'll learn to assess your current realities, set goals rooted in both champion growth and financial need, and establish regular review rhythms that keep your plan responsive rather than static. Whether you're building your first plan or returning to sharpen one you've used for years, you'll leave with practical tools, and a fresh eye on your own data, to write or refine a plan that infuses your entire organization with a biblical approach to fundraising.

CAFO friends have a unique follow-up opportunity:

After you join us for this Mission Increase national virtual workshop, you are invited to join the CAFO team and guest Kevin Whitman, Senior Director of Curriculum Development, for a follow-up discussion on Thursday, October 29: The Debrief - A CAFO Community Conversation.

Register separately for The Debrief. We encourage you to attend both events to maximize your experience. The Debrief discussion will not be recorded.
