About This Webinar
2020 proved to be a challenging year for organizations that send people on mission trips. Especially if they use these trips as a primary source of income to raise funds supporting their outreach and operations. With the global Covid-19 pandemic shutting down economies and travel, many of these groups were forced to postpone or cancel major trips and scramble to find new ways to raise the funds they need to keep the lights on.
To make matters worse, when it comes to mission trip fundraising, more often than not, these trips serve to build community and camaraderie between the mission and the people who participate and volunteer. Therefore, since these trips couldn't happen, many of these groups will feel the loss of ongoing support and gifts for many more years to come.
From Tribulation to Triumphant
But if you know anything about these missions and the people who lead them, you'll know that it will take a lot more than a global pandemic to slow down their commitment to their Christian cause. In fact, most will tell you that it is through adversity, persecution, and against-all-odds difficulties like these that caused the early church to explode in growth and go global in the first place. This, after all, is not the Church's first pandemic. Not even close.
As the world begins to open back up, we are optimistic that travel will return to normal and that many of our volunteers and teams who have been pent-up will be ready to make short-term mission trips in the coming months. This very well could cause a significant boost in registration, participation, and donations for years to come especially, if we take this time to revisit how we communicate and what we do to build some "stickiness" to our cause and our fundraising efforts.
That's where Rally comes in. Rally is proud to sponsor a series of webinars with the team at Mission Finder.
