Staying Positive About a Church Fundraising Effort
Back in the good old days, a church fundraising effort was something that was done as an extra activity, since fundraisers were just there to give the church some extra help with income. But these days, with things being the way they are with the economy, many churches are relying more heavily on a church fundraising effort to help build new facilities, refurbish existing facilities, or support the youth group or choir. Fundraisers can be beneficial no matter how much money your church needs or what it is needed for.
If you are organizing your fundraiser this time around, it may seem like a lot of responsibility and pressure. If you feel like you are expected to get everything right, you may find it difficult to face this challenge in a positive way. After all, the bottom line is that a church fundraising campaign is there to bring in the cash, and that has to be the number one priority, to get the money rolling in. It’s enough to leave you feeling stressed, and maybe even having a negative outlook about just how much impact you can possibly make.
However, church fundraising can actually make a huge difference in the future of the church, and it’s time to start thinking about it in more positive ways, because with your effort, everyone’s load will be lightened and you will have affected your church and your community in a very beneficial way.
Remember, from the very moment that you take on the responsibility for this job, you are moving in a positive direction toward helping the church reach its monetary goals. That’s something to feel good about, and with a good church fundraising idea on your side and a team of enthusiastic people, you can turn this situation into a success the church will remember for many years.
