As part of the Momentum (Colombia) special appeal, FAIR is asking businesses to engage in one or more of the following ways. It’s up to each business to decide their level of engagement. We invite you to review the options below and identify what fits your business and employees best.
Option 1: Commit to a gift or offering.
Decide on an amount to give as an organization, or a financial goal that your employees can fundraise to reach together.
Some things to consider when setting your financial goal:
- Different-sized businesses are able to raise different amounts. Set a faith goal that fits your business’ size and capacity, but that is also big enough to create a sense of excitement and dependence on God. Then celebrate whatever your workplace is able to raise! If you have employees who are unbelievers, don’t be afraid to invite them to participate, too.
- Check out the promotional resources section that FAIR has made available to help promote this appeal in your context.
- Make use of FAIR’s Love Extended Feature brochure, which is designed to help families and individuals see how a donation of any size can contribute to meeting the needs of vulnerable Colombians. You can request hard copies for your employees, or check out and share the digital version.
Option 2: Learn More and Pray
FAIR will be hosting a virtual event (in March) to share stories of how God is moving in Colombia. Consider inviting your employees to join the virtual event to listen, learn, and pray together for our brothers and sisters in Medellín, Colombia.
Post prayer requests in common workspace, and/or take time to pray for Colombian churches and their good work as a regular part of staff meetings.
