Help Us Buy a Church Van!

 
 
 

We are excited to announce a special fundraising campaign that will bring us closer to acquiring a brand-new church van! As a growing and vibrant church community, we recognize the importance of having reliable transportation to facilitate various church activities and support our mission of spreading the message of hope and compassion. Instead of paying nearly $200 per day whenever we need to rent a van, we would be able to use this anytime.

Why Do We Need a New Van?

We are a church that has a vision. This new van will enable us to fulfill our vision and enhance our ministries in several ways:

  1. Transportation for Church Events: The van will allow us to transport members and guests to and from church events, making it easier for everyone to participate and connect with one another. This will include youth group outings, volunteer activities, retreats, and other special events.

  2. Support for Elderly and Disabled Members: A new van will make it possible for elderly and disabled members to attend church services and events, fostering a greater sense of inclusion and community.

  3. Outreach, Missions, Rallies, and CONFERENCE! With a reliable mode of transportation, we will be better equipped to reach out to neighboring communities, engage in mission work, and offer support to those in need.

How Can You Help?

We believe that every contribution, no matter the size, can make a significant impact. Here are some ways you can get involved and support our fundraising campaign for the new church van:

  1. Pray for Our Success: As a church community, we firmly believe in the power of prayer. Please keep our fundraising campaign in your prayers, asking for guidance, blessings, and the ability to reach our target. Your spiritual support is invaluable.

  2. Donate Financially: Any financial contribution towards our fundraising goal will bring us one step closer to acquiring the van. You can donate a specific amount or pledge a recurring donation over a period of time. Every dollar counts!

  3. Spread the Word: Help us raise awareness about our campaign by sharing this blog post, along with our social media updates, within your personal networks. Encourage your family, friends, and colleagues to contribute or participate in our fundraising events.

  4. Create your own Facebook fundraiser and let it go viral! Facebook is a great place for a funding campaign because they handle all the payment processing and don’t charge any fees.

Our new church van will be a valuable asset, enabling us to extend our reach, enhance our ministries, and strengthen our community ties. By participating in this fundraising campaign, you become an integral part of our journey toward acquiring this much-needed vehicle.

We are immensely grateful for your support!

Why is this fundraiser on vbph.org instead of gofundme?

SIMPLE: we want 100% of your donations to go to our new van. GoFundMe takes a cut out of every donation on their platform, and so do the credit card companies. Using GoFundMe causes 4-7% of your intended donation to be diverted from the intended recipient. Our giving platform, RebelGive allows you to add the credit card fees to your gift, rather than taking it out of your intended gift. If your bank account is in the US, you can also choose to give via ACH, which is ZERO-FEE. Every tax-deductible donation will be received by The Potter's House Church in Virginia Beach, VA.
