How a Community Outreach Photo Event Generated 58 Interests on a $180 Budget 

 

The Best Part - You can do this for your community too!

 

Event Details

Families were invited to choose a time for a holiday photo shoot, enjoy brunch, and attend one of the church's Christmas services. As an added incentive and service to those in need, the first 24 families to register were also given the opportunity to shop in the church's "Holiday Shop" to choose a Christmas gift for each of their children (up to age 12 with a max of 4 children per household).

We decided to partner with Rethinking Evangelism because we don’t have staff who are professional marketers and can think through a strategy around our public-facing identity.
