Year-End Giving Resources
December 30 and 31 are the highest volume giving days of the year. More donations are processed on these two days than on Giving Tuesday!
The end of the year is a great time to generously give to a church or ministry. These gifts open doors for potential tax savings and make a lasting impact on the ministries that receive them.
As we come to the end of 2022, year-end giving is a great opportunity to grow your church’s overall culture of generosity. Feel free to use these year-end giving resources to promote generosity and charitable giving in your church.
Remember: to ensure gifts are properly credited, they must be postmarked by December 31.
