Our Approach

• We know the challenges you face – budgets, attendance and the fear of talking about money in faith-based organizations – but we also know that you can get past the challenges when you offer donors an inspiring and rewarding experience of giving in faith.  

• Your constituency can be filled with people who truly understand the joy of giving in faith and engage with you in a meaningful way. People who not only grow with you in your ministry, but come alongside you and give year after year.  A caring and committed group of followers who connect with you on a deeper level and help you impact the community through the word of God.

• You want to make a difference in your ministry, but it can be challenging doing it without the right strategies and tools. Whether you want to inspire first-time givers, re-engage existing members, or develop integrated solutions for your annual fundraising and stewardship programs, we’re the solution you’ve been looking for.

• Why we do it? We do it because we believe every church and faith-based ministry can change the world through their mission when they find the right person to come along side them and give them the skills and confidence to feel comfortable talking about money.
