Discovering Creative Ways To Increase My Giving According to the leaflet that the church gave us on saturday If you did not receieve any, don't have to worry!!! I'm gonna post them up !!!! But firstly i will say that i will be copying directly the same of the leaflet but those in the brackets, will be something from me Here are some creative ways that people in our City Harvest family are already using to raise more money for the building fund. We suggest you try them : 1) Eliminate all excessive spending for the next 4 months. Cut down excessive spending on clothing, cosmectic, facial treatment, etc. Save the cash for the building fund [It means, do not spend money on the WANTS, but just spend on the NEEDS. Is like you need to spend money on your lunch] 2) Postpone all major purchases for the few months in order to give more [Example, u want a camera, this is a want, not a need. So wait till after the arise and build to end] 3) Take a second, part-time job A number of members are already giving provet tuition in order tobe able to give more for the Arise and Build campaign [This if for the young adults and adults, not including those who are now studying in secondary sch] 4) Have everyone in your family locate the spare change in your house and begin collecting it all in one giant piggy banj [Imagine, in 1 day u can locate at least $1, in 1 week $7, 1 month $28, 4 months $112] 5) Give your year-end bonuses, stock dividends, stock, bonds, or tax refunds 6) Go to a cheaper resort for your annual vacation. The money saved could be added to your ofering. You canstill have a great time in a less expernsive venue 7) Hold a garage sale You prabably have a garage or closet full of unused items that could be converted into casf. It is estimated that the average CHC member has at least $500 assets sitting unused in his or her storeroom. There are 2 basic approaches to finding more cash to give: ~Look for ways to reduce your expenses ~Look for ways to increase your income yeap thats all..... so i hereby wish all the best, and let us give our best to God thru our tithes, offering and off cos to the ARISE AND BUILD CAMPAIGN ( MARCH 2010 - JUNE 2010 ) limliping :P |
