Fundraising
Christian faith‐based nonprofits should see fundraising not as a necessary evil, but as a positive extension of ministry anchored by giving. Jesus’ example and his sacrifice should prompt Christians to support faith‐based projects that serve those in need. Often, the catalyst for this kind of donor response is the fundraiser.

Exaggeration or distortion of the facts has consequences that endanger real victims of human rights abuses and serve to discredit otherwise effective organizations, like Amnesty
