3. Make the Most of Your Summer

Summer is the best time to get your campus ministry fundraising ready for the year ahead.

The Summer Coaching Sprint is a 3-month virtual coaching program designed to help you build the core fundraising pieces you need before fall:

  • A 12-month fundraising calendar
  • Stronger annual fund plan
  • Major gift pipeline
  • Donor communications
  • Stewardship tools, and
  • A practical Sprint Playbook your team can keep using.

You will meet weekly with a Petrus fundraising coach, work through 8 key focus areas, and receive access to Pete AI, Petrus’s Catholic fundraising copilot, to help you draft appeals, prepare for donor meetings, build plans, and move faster between sessions.

By the end of the sprint, you will not just have fundraising ideas. You will have a plan, the tools to execute it, and a coach helping you move it forward.

Best for: Campus ministry leaders who want to use the slower summer months to prepare for a stronger fall fundraising season.
