As a part of the Collective Energy webinar series, the Rev. Jessie Light-Wells (former Campus Ministry at UKirk SMU, Dallas, Texas), the Rev. Katherine Bush (Associate Rector, Calvary Episcopal Church, Memphis, TN), the Rev. Mieke Vandersall (Partner, Vandersall Collective) and Erin Weber-Johnson (Partner, Vandersall Collective) answered important and all-too-often overwhelming questions about capital campaigns in Reflective Capital Campaigns: Your Community, Your Culture, Your Needs.

As faith communities, approaching fundraising events such as capital campaigns can prompt questions such as:

  • When do you do a capital campaign? How do you know when the time is right? What do you need to know before you dive in?

  • Is it ethical to run a capital campaign at this political and economic moment? We'll discuss theology, the economy and responsible asking.

  • What makes your campaign different from other nonprofit campaigns? We work with close-knit communities, where people know each other intimately. This invites a different approach.

These questions and more are all covered in the above webinar, fielded by a panel of experts in the field who are ready to meet you where you are now and journey with your community in these next steps.
