Churches and non-profits cannot survive, let alone
thrive, without the financial contributions of members and others. Yet, one of
the most dreaded and avoided aspects of ministry and leadership is asking
others for money. There is a strong cultural taboo to even talking about
finances and money. In this class, participants learn to see fundraising as an
opportunity to develop important relationships that enrich their lives. With
ample opportunity for dialogue and discovery, participants will put their
learning into practice in a final project in which they create a fundraising
campaign for an organization or church.
