Ethical fundraising, a garden story
What is ethical fundraising? When a fundraiser can tell stories about the garden and invite people to water it, trusting that God will provide a harvest.
Digging our dreams: Can generosity grow here?
Some organizations have been looking at a plot of poor soil for so long that they can’t envision anything growing there. Stewardship becomes managing scarcity well.
Joyful generosity means telling other people about what’s growing in God’s garden and inviting them to water it. Digging our dreams in order to make certain that we we hope for will come true.
Generosity is like a well-watered garden
Fundraising is the joyful and holy task of telling people about the garden and inviting them to water it.
Gardens need water. And not just 'once in a while' water, but steady and consistent water. Gardeners are rewarded for their efforts with flowers and foliage. It's a great deal - we get more than we give.
