Fund Raising in College Ministry....5 Truths

1.  The person most likely to give you money is someone who has already given money to your ministry.

2.  The Unforgivable Sin in fund raising is not enclosing an addressed return envelope with a written appeal.   It simplifies and makes a quick response more likely.  These envelopes can also serve as a reminder to give later.

3.  Some do not give because they feel they must give a large gift for it to matter.

4. A quick handwritten thank you note is always appropriate and increases the likelihood of another gift.

5.  Part of why someone gives to a ministry is because they believe in the leader.
