Running a Christian school means juggling enrollment, academics, staff, parent expectations—and fundraising. Many school leaders feel pressure to raise money but aren’t sure what’s working or why giving isn’t growing.
Here are three common fundraising mistakes Christian schools make—and how to fix them:
1. Only Asking When There’s a Crisis
If the only time your school reaches out for donations is when something’s broken or urgent, you train your donors to wait until disaster strikes. Instead, build a rhythm of gratitude, storytelling, and vision-casting throughout the year.
2. Not Telling Compelling Stories
People don’t give to tuition gaps—they give to changed lives. Share stories of students thriving, alumni making an impact, or families who’ve been transformed. When your message focuses on mission, support follows.
3. No Clear Digital Strategy
A donation link buried three clicks deep on your school website won’t work. Your email, website, and social channels need a unified, simple path to give—especially during key campaigns.
