How does support raising work?
Support raising isn’t a pre-ministry task; it’s an integral part of the journey! Once accepted into the internship, we set up your online donation portal, provide training on effective support-raising techniques, and schedule regular check-in calls to monitor your progress.
While raising support may seem daunting, it’s also an opportunity to witness God’s faithfulness and provision. It’s a chance to invite others to join in the incredible work the Lord is doing worldwide.
