Capital Campaigns

The United Methodist Foundation of Western Pennsylvania provides capital campaign assistance for those churches considering a program of construction, renovation or repair, debt retirement, or ministry expansion.

“Find Us Faithful” is our capital stewardship program that can help churches that have a significant need for funds over and above the regular offering of members. A Planning Study, which uses confidential interviews to provide valuable insights for program leaders, is an integral part of any Foundation-managed campaign. Personal consultations and training provided by members of our field staff are also included.

A no-charge, no-obligation introductory presentation and consultation session by a Foundation staff member can help provide answers to important capital campaign questions, such as:

• How much money can be raised in a capital campaign?
• Does our church need professional assistance? Can the Foundation provide that assistance?
• What is involved in a Planning Study?
• What would be the best time for our church to begin a capital campaign?
• How long would a campaign take?

For further information, see the Capital Campaign Services brochure available on this Web site. The Foundation does charge a fee for churches that choose to use these services. If you are interested in the services available through the Foundation for capital campaign support, please contact us.
