When talking about fundraising in a church or faith-based organization, we often hear, "This is the church. We shouldn't talk about fundraising. We're about faith!" Churches and faith based organizations can greatly benefit from the foundational principles of non-profit fundraising without sacrificing a good theology. When they dismiss these principles out of hand, they do it to their detriment. Utilizing the work of Henri Nouwen, Jesus, and the Apostle Paul, this roundtable will provide Biblical and theological connections between faith communities and fundraising. This frees churches and faith-based organizations to grow in generosity without sacrificing their core beliefs.
