Looking for a fresh fundraising idea without the work of hosting another dinner?
One community of faith partnered with a local pizza shop to offer a simple and successful pizza fundraiser. Families placed advance orders, picked up their pizzas during a designated time, and enjoyed a hot meal with minimal effort. A portion of the proceeds came back to the church.
What partnerships might be possible in your community? Local restaurants, museums, concerts, sports events, tours, adventure experiences, or small businesses may be eager to collaborate. The result could be a fundraiser, a community-building event, or simply an opportunity for people to connect.

This summer, think creatively, build local relationships, and explore opportunities with neighbouring communities of faith to extend your reach and welcome others into meaningful experiences
