Cover Story: Faith-based Fundraising

And these people can be reached and motivated on a much deeper level than less spiritually oriented donors.

Just as it takes little blue-haired ladies to run bake sales at my church to fund a new floor for the narthex, it takes donors of all levels to fund missions of all bents and campaigns of all sizes. It’s not often you see a major-gift check signed by God. But with the right mission, impeccable stewardship and an abiding respect for your donors’ beliefs, you might find that faith can, indeed, move mountains.
