Fundraising for Planters

The number-one reason plants stall. We build a real funding stack — and coach the actual asks.

Who this is for

  • Planters who need to raise 12–36 months of runway and don't know where to start.
  • Planters who have been raising for six months and are stuck at 40%.
  • Bivocational planters figuring out the right mix of salary, runway, and job.

What we do

Month one we map your funding stack: sending-church commitment, partner churches, individual supporters, network grants, denominational grants, foundation grants, and bivocational runway. Then we pressure-test it against your actual launch budget — no wishful math.

From month two forward we coach the actual asks. Partner-church presentations. Individual donor conversations. Grant applications. Follow-up rhythm. And the internal work that most fundraising coaching skips — the theology of asking, the marriage conversation, the identity trap of tying your worth to your funding progress.

What you walk out with

  • A written funding plan with realistic sources and dates.
  • Ask scripts for partner churches, individuals, and grant applications.
  • A CRM-style tracker for your donor pipeline.
  • A pastoral partner for the emotional grind of raising support.
