We've always had a particular enthusiasm for working with our non-profit clients, perhaps because it often takes just a bit more resourcefulness to create a successful campaign within the scope of a limited budget.  It’s like flexing our creative muscles.  But a lot of our “trade secrets” apply to for-profit organizations as well.  And who isn’t looking to stretch their marketing dollars these days?

This article is the first of three we'll be posting in the next couple of weeks illustrating how we enhanced the marketing impact for three of our non-profit clients. 

The first article lists 8 points we culled from Christian Community Action’s annual “Swing & Serve” golf and tennis tournament fundraiser. The same steps that made this year’s CCA event bigger and better than ever can also be applied to your next project.

It’s always a pleasure to work with Christian Community Action, but it was an even greater pleasure to work on their current - and truly inspiring - campaign. 

On March first, CCA will host Pastor Todd Burpo, author of “Heaven is for Real”, as he speaks about his son Colton’s amazing experience – his trip to heaven and back - during an emergency appendectomy when he was just four years old.

There’s limited seating at the Irving Bible Church Worship Center, so reserve your tickets early either by calling Amanda at 972.219.4329 or go to their online registration form. 

For more than 35 years, Christian Community Action has been feeding, sheltering, educating and training families in need within 42 communities throughout Collin, Dallas, Denton, Tarrant and Wise counties.

In one year, CCA assists more than 12,000 individuals. They distribute more than $1.4 million of food and see more than 4,000 low-income patients in their health center each year.  They have more than 1,660 people taking educational and vocational training programs at their facility, and provide more than 57,000 lunches to kids during the summer.  If you'd like to join the ranks of the more than 2,500 volunteers who are making a difference in our community, check out their website.
