Meet Laurel Vanden Berg
Mission Increase (MI) West Michigan is a community of Christian ministries working to implement a biblical approach to fundraising to grow and more fully-achieve their God-given missions. What do we want FOR West Michigan as a result? An “overflowing in many expressions of thanks to God.” (2 Corinthians 9:12-NIV)
Funded by givers from this community, MI West Michigan is able to offer teaching, coaching, consulting, and even matching grants, all at no cost to ministries.

Nonprofit + Church = Kingdom Impact
Mission Increase believes in the power of church engagement. Too often though, ministries either don’t know how to build relationships with churches, or only see them as check-writers. There is a better way. To gain a picture of healthy nonprofit and church relationships, join us live on this May 17th webinar to hear the panelists' discussion and participate in the Q&A.
Workshops
Design Inspirational Large-Scale Fundraising Events
Organizations lose around half their donor base each year. For your nonprofit to survive, you must be regularly inviting new people the cause. Hosting an inspiring large-scale event can help your organization reach a wider audience where you can cultivate engagement with new people. This workshop will focus on the important planning principles for large-scale events. Be sure to invite key volunteers, development staff and board members to participate.
