For Faith Communities

Your congregation can fund its mission. Together.

Organizers recruit members as fundraisers. Each gets their own month calendar to share with family and friends. Donors claim a day and give the matching amount or more, and can cover fees. The whole congregation owns the goal.

The challenge

The burden of funding falls on too few people in the community.

Most congregational fundraising draws from a small number of high-capacity donors or a single annual stewardship campaign. Participation is passive. The same members carry the weight cycle after cycle, and burnout is common among the committee doing the asking.

MonthFund distributes the responsibility across the whole congregation. Every member who claims a day—whether for a building fund, youth ministry, community outreach, or emergency support—becomes an active participant. Not a recipient of an ask, but a contributor to a shared, visible goal.

The model

A month of collective giving.

01

Set the campaign and recruit fundraisers

Leadership picks a month, sets the goal context (building fund, outreach, youth ministry), and recruits members as fundraisers. Each gets their own calendar page.

02

Fundraisers share; donors claim days

Each member shares their calendar with family, friends, and community. Donors claim a day and give the matching amount or more, and can cover fees. Every claimed day brings the goal closer.

03

The community fills the month

When every day is claimed and fulfilled, the congregation has funded its mission, collectively. The calendar is the record of who showed up.

Transparent outcomes

Know what a full campaign generates before you launch.

Full 31-day campaign$496

The structural output of a fully claimed month. Based on the model's design, not projected results.

Twice per year$992

Run during high-participation seasons: Lent, Ramadan, High Holidays, Stewardship Season. Same structure both times.

Across ministriesScales

Segment by ministry or giving circle. Each group runs its own month, compounding the congregation's overall giving capacity.

MonthFund provides structure. Outcomes depend on participation. The model makes them calculable, not guaranteed.

Designed for congregational use

Accessible to every member of your community.

Accessible to all members

Members of all ages and technical comfort levels can participate through a simple link. No app download required, no account required to claim a day.

Shared campaign visibility

Leadership sees real-time fill rate. Members see communal progress. Shared visibility creates the kind of collective accountability that mirrors your community's values.

Timed to your seasons

Run campaigns during Lent, Ramadan, the High Holidays, Advent, Stewardship Season, or whenever your congregation has the most momentum and focus.

Multiple ministry campaigns

Segment by ministry, committee, or giving circle. Organization plans support multiple simultaneous campaigns—youth group, women's circle, building fund—all under one account.

Why it works

Community ownership is the model.

Participation over pressure

Claiming a day is a concrete, bounded commitment. It doesn't require members to be major donors, only active participants in a shared goal.

Visible progress builds momentum

When the congregation watches the calendar fill, momentum builds naturally. No one wants their day to be the gap that holds the community back.

Aligned with communal values

The model reflects the collective ethic at the heart of most faith traditions. Giving isn't individual. It's a shared act. MonthFund gives that ethic a structure.

FAQ

Questions from faith community leaders

Can we tie the campaign to a specific initiative?

Yes. You set the campaign context (building fund, youth program, community outreach, emergency support). The calendar is the structure. The mission is yours to define.

What if some members can't participate digitally?

Organizers can claim days on behalf of members and manage fulfillment manually. MonthFund supports mixed participation (digital and assisted) within the same campaign.

Is this appropriate alongside our annual giving campaign?

Yes. MonthFund complements existing giving programs. It is not a replacement. Many communities use it for targeted initiatives separate from general stewardship.

Can we run a campaign during Lent, Ramadan, or the High Holidays?

Yes. MonthFund is designed to be timed around your community's seasons of giving and reflection. Running a campaign during Lent, Ramadan, Advent, or the High Holidays aligns the fundraising structure with a moment when your congregation is already focused on generosity and collective commitment.

How does MonthFund work for a building fund or capital campaign?

Set the campaign context to your building initiative. Each month-long campaign contributes a defined structural amount toward the larger capital goal. Organizations running multi-year capital campaigns use MonthFund to generate consistent monthly contributions alongside major gift solicitations, rather than relying on a single annual push.

Can different ministries or small groups run separate campaigns?

Yes. An Organization plan supports multiple simultaneous campaigns. The youth ministry, the women's circle, and the men's group can each run their own month calendar at the same time, each with their own fundraisers, donors, and goal context.

How does MonthFund relate to tithing or existing pledge programs?

MonthFund is separate from tithing and pledge-based giving. It is a supplemental, structured fundraising tool for specific initiatives. Members who participate in regular giving can also claim a day on a targeted campaign calendar. The two programs operate independently and do not interfere with each other.

Is MonthFund an established platform?

MonthFund is launching in 2026. Built on a structured, reliable model and designed to work from the first campaign. We're here to support your community through setup and beyond.
