  3. Executive Summary • The problem • Without a comprehensive and cohesive effort to address our parish’s financial well being, we are left with a collection of seemingly (or actually) unrelated efforts concurrently seeking funds for various purposes. • Members of our parish frequently feel as they are constantly being asked for money and are not easily able to differentiate between the requests. • The goal • Ensure that both the operating and strategic fundraising efforts are well-coordinated and clearly communicated, so that those being asked to help sustain and progress parish ministries understand the distinction and the need for both.

Objectives • Development of Financial Strategy • To develop and communicate a single strategy to our community, so that we will be able to better focus on Stewardship as the single major source of operating funds, while concurrently managing efforts for necessary capital improvements and other one time financial needs. • Education • Educate the members and friends of the Church of the Holy Resurrection about • Operating expenses of our parish and our need for their support in meeting these expenses • Where various requests for funds fit into parish finances • Stewardship • Capital Fundraising • Special Projects • Educate those who are responsible for the various fundraising efforts so that we can provide a clear and consistent message that explains all of these efforts. • Marketing • Work with all relevant committee chairs to ensure consistent message is delivered regarding finances
