A Fundraising Methodology Built for Adventist Ministries

Most fundraising fails for one of two reasons: there is no real plan, or the plan ignores how Adventists actually give. Our methodology fixes both. It is a repeatable, five-phase process we run with your team — strategy and execution, not a report you file away.

  1. 01

    Listen & Assess

    We start with your mission, your donors, and your numbers — what you raise today, where it comes from, and what is leaking. No template. Your reality first.

  2. 02

    Build the Case

    People give to vision, not need. We help you tell a story worth funding — clear, honest, and rooted in the mission your community already believes in.

  3. 03

    Grow the Donor Base

    We turn one-time givers into recurring partners and identify the major-gift relationships hiding in plain sight among your alumni, parents, and members.

  4. 04

    Run the Campaign

    Annual appeals, capital campaigns, and giving days — planned, scripted, and executed with you, so the plan actually ships instead of sitting in a binder.

  5. 05

    Measure & Sustain

    We track what works, hand you systems your team can run, and build the habits that keep giving growing long after the campaign ends.

Who We Help

Every Adventist organization funds its mission differently. Pick the path that fits yours — each one digs into the specific fundraising challenges you face.

What an Adventist Fundraising Consultant Actually Does

Strategy that fits your mission

We assess your giving, find what is working, and build a plan grounded in your mission and your donors — not a generic template.

Execution alongside your team

We help you write the appeals, plan the campaign, and ship it — so the plan actually happens instead of stalling.

Donor relationships that last

We turn one-time gifts into recurring support and surface the major-gift relationships already in your community.

Systems you keep

When we are done, your team is left with habits, tools, and a process you can run on your own.

Funding ministry is its own discipline. If you are weighing the cost of an Adventist education or wondering how giving fits the bigger picture, our guides on Adventist school costs and tithe and giving are good background reading.

Why Adventist Organizations Choose Adventist Guide

We speak Adventist

Tithe, stewardship, mission, constituency — we know the language and the culture, so nothing gets lost in translation.

Strategy and execution

We do not hand you a binder and disappear. We build the plan and help you run it.

Built to sustain

The goal is not one big year. It is a fundraising program that keeps growing after we are gone.

Frequently Asked Questions About Adventist Fundraising

What does an Adventist fundraising consultant actually do? +

We help Adventist schools, churches, camps, and ministries raise more money — sustainably. That means assessing your current giving, building a compelling case for support, growing your donor base, and planning and running campaigns alongside your team. We do the strategy and execution; you keep the relationships.

How is Adventist fundraising different from secular fundraising? +

The principles overlap, but the context is everything. Adventist giving runs through tithe, stewardship, and a deep sense of mission. A fundraising approach that ignores that — or treats your members like a mailing list — falls flat. We work within the values, language, and rhythms of the Adventist community.

Who do you work with? +

Adventist high schools and academies, local churches, summer camps, self-supporting and independent ministries, and supporting schools. If your mission is Adventist and you need to fund it, we can help.

How quickly will we see results? +

Some wins are fast — tightening an annual appeal or launching a recurring-giving program can move numbers within a quarter. Major capital campaigns are longer arcs. We will be honest with you about timelines before you commit to anything.

How do we get started? +

Tell us about your organization and how you fundraise today. We will reach out within two business days to talk through your goals and whether we are a fit.
