We need your support!
As of June 2020, U.S. nonprofits have seen a decline in 2020, giving of 6%, due to Covid-19 ( Source: AFP.org). Unfortunately, our ministry has seen a more drastic decline in giving of 18%. In addition to our individual supporters being impacted by the loss of jobs or other financial burdens due to the pandemic, many of the organizations, congregations, and grants that we have consistently relied upon through the years have been impacted by the decline in their own giving--thus impacting their own gifts to Fairmount.
We are a small non-profit with a small operating budget, but 18% is a significant decrease. We would like to ask you to consider giving an extra-year-end gift to Fairmount Ministries...big or small, your gift will help us to continue to make an eternal impact in the Wichita State & Fairmount Communities.
Please use this link or the button at the bottom of the email to give electronically. You can also send checks to Fairmount Ministries, 3815 E. 17th St. N., Wichita, KS 67208. Giving Tuesday
Gathering Follow Up
Last month we celebrated our annual fall fundraiser. Because of Covid-19, we had to change the format, pull the event back to Fairmount, and extend it over one week. It was a great week connecting with so many of you, and we are so grateful to all who participated. Because of your involvement and generosity, we were blessed with over $5,000 from this event! Thank you!

Helping Our Community
As the weather continues to get colder and people who have lost their jobs struggle to find new ones during a pandemic, we know many in our local community need help. We’re collecting dry-non perishable food items & winter clothing (hats, gloves, socks, coats, blankets)! The drop-off site is located right inside our front entryway. See our website for more details about what is and is not accepted and more information about the organizations that will benefit from your support.
Want to help, but live out of the Wichita area? Click this link to donate to the Food & Clothing Drive through our Community Care Fund.
Thank you for helping us bless our community! As a way to show our appreciation, you will receive 10% off of your order when you show your donation to a Barista! |
