There’s nothing like starting with a fresh slate to begin yearly planning for your church! With 2017 behind us, and January just revving up, now is the ideal time to focus on what’s ahead. Even with a lot on your plate this month, don’t push planning to the bottom of the list. Yearly planning is essential for growth, development, & increasing giving in 2018.
The end of the year can be downright hectic for churches. Between last-minute donations being sent in, reminder emails being sent out, and everything happening between now until the clock strikes midnight on December 31st, to-do lists seem to grow longer by the minute. But, there’s one more task to add to your calendar before you forget, and that is thanking your donors.
Whether your church has participated in #GivingTuesday for a few years or this is your first time taking part, you probably feel the excitement in the air. The idea behind this global day of giving is simple and pure. It reminds people to give to charitable causes when holiday consumerism is at its peak.
Churches everywhere are preparing for the increase in generosity around the holidays. Last year, 25% of overall giving for faith-based organizations happened in November and December, and online giving grew in December for the second year in a row.
The most charitable season is right around the corner, and it’s the ideal time for churches and faith-based groups to enhance their online giving campaigns. Online giving grew by 7.9% last year, and the rise in generosity has already been noticed in 2017.
Churches and faith-based organizations across the globe are getting ready to participate in #GivingTuesday, and it’s no wonder! With the focus placed on generosity instead of shopping for a moment, it can be a nice break and sound reminder about the true meaning of the Christmas season
