Too many ministry leaders feel isolated in their fundraising journey, operating from scarcity thinking instead of trusting God’s abundant provision. An Mi Community breaks this cycle by bringing together local organizations for collaborative learning, peer support, and shared growth.
Imagine your region’s ministries grounded in biblical fundraising principles, encouraged by fellow leaders, and equipped through expert coaching, all while building lasting relationships that extend far beyond any single workshop. This is the power of community over isolation, abundance over scarcity, and collaboration over competition.

These communities receive tailored curriculum, flexible scheduling, coaching focused on your unique challenges, and complete Mission Increase staffing and marketing support.
Chris Chancey, President of NCF Jacksonville, fully funded an Mi Hybrid Community to connect siloed ministries with strategic givers.
An Mi Hybrid Community in your city creates the ecosystem Chris describes, connecting your givers with equipped, collaborative ministries while building a thriving community of Kingdom-focused leaders. This is strategic stewardship that produces exponential returns.
Both Hybrid and Flagship communities accommodate unlimited ministry participants. Based on our operational projections, we expect approximately 50 active nonprofits in Year 1, scaling to 100 by Year 2 and 150 by Year 3. There is no cap on participation.
Ministries attend quarterly workshops (3 hours each) and can participate in optional group coaching sessions. The flexible format allows organizations to engage at their own pace while still benefiting from the community.
Mi Communities create ongoing peer relationships, not just event attendance. Ministry leaders learn together, support one another, and break the isolation that often accompanies fundraising challenges. The community aspect is what transforms scattered learning into sustainable growth.
No. Mission Increase works with you to find the right local Area Director who will faithfully serve your community. Because you know the community, we collaborate on hiring to find the right fit. We handle all marketing, promotion, and logistics.
Mission Increase manages all marketing, promotional materials, and communications as a joint effort with local groups, churches, foundations, or whoever is wanting Mi to come to the community. Since you already know people in the region, you can help especially with the launch by making connections and introductions. We handle the materials and coordination—you provide the local knowledge and relationships.
Investment levels vary based on region, model, and customization needs. We’ll provide detailed pricing during our initial consultation based on your specific vision and community size.
The Hybrid model is a great way to get started and provides a clear path for expansion into a Flagship community as you see the impact of collaborative learning and want even deeper engagement.
Communities can renew their agreement annually. Many continue for multiple years as the collaborative relationships deepen and new ministries join the community.
Mi Communities welcome any nonprofit organization to participate and join. That being said, because of our strong biblical foundation in our teachings, most participants share our Christian faith, though it is not a requirement. A significant portion of ministries who are part of Mi are not faith-based nonprofits, but they are often led by Christians who appreciate the biblical principles underlying our approach.
