Creative Fund Raising for Refugees.
January 31, 2012 By
Prompted by the 13 th Sabbath Offering Emphasis Alice Pierson, Sabbath School leader for the Sunnydale Church in Centralia, Missouri called me in October to find out the price of Bibles for refugees. Her thoughts were that if she told the members that the goal was to raise $1,000 for refugees, they would probably throw up their hands thinking they could never afford to give that much. However, if she told them the price of a Bible, they might feel that they could buy one or two Bibles for refugees and would probably end up raising more funds than if they merely set a general goal. So she developed a goal device on a bulletin board with the title “Love Gifts for Jesus = Bibles for Refugees” and a map of the North American Division, and put a picture of a Bible on the bulletin board for every $25 raised, since Karen Bibles cost approximately $25 with shipping from Asia. (See picture.) Her plan worked.
