Donations play a crucial role in sustaining and advancing the mission and activities of your churches. 

Here are 4 key ways to increase donations to your churches:

Transparency and Accountability

According to a study by Barna Group, 82% of churchgoers say they are more likely to trust a church with their donations if it is transparent about its finances and how funds are used.

Demonstrating financial transparency can significantly boost trust among your congregation, leading to increased donations.  

Engaging Worship Services and Outreach Programs

The National Congregations Study found that churches with active outreach programs and engagement opportunities tend to have higher giving levels. Congregations with extensive community involvement receive, on average, 70% more in annual donations. 

Emphasising outreach programs and creating engaging worship services that connect with members’ values can substantially increase donations.  

Digital Engagement and Convenience

A survey by LifeWay Research revealed that 42% of churchgoers prefer to give online or through mobile apps. Furthermore, churches that offer online giving options report an average increase in overall donations by 32%. 

Leveraging digital platforms and providing convenient online giving methods can result in a significant boost in contributions and engagement.

Cut online processing costs

You might not realise this, but your church’s digital giving company is likely taking a cut of every tithe and offering your Church receives.

That’s like a tax collector taking an average of 2%-4% of every donation.

That means most Churches lose hundreds and thousands a year because of this. That’s money that can be used to support ministries and impact communities.

The good news is ChurchDonate fixes all of these problems and more.
