It’s common for churches to collect offerings from generous donors who wish to lend their support. If your church is looking for the best way to go about this, it’s important to think about what methods will be helpful for both the donors and for those in charge of tracking the donations.

At The Supplies Shops, we recommend using church offering envelopes to collect these donations. These envelopes include features that are designed specifically with church and nonprofit donations in mind.

Benefits of Using Envelopes for Church Offerings

Church offering envelopes bring a lot of benefits to both churchgoers and church leaders as well. They are the perfect size for bills and checks. People can confidently put their contributions in the envelope and seal it shut! This provides added confidence for donors who are concerned about keeping information on checks private, or concealing the amount of a donation.

The die cut thumb notch under the flap allows you to quickly open the envelope without needing a letter opener. This helps to speed up the processing time for church leaders who are tracking donations.

A variety of envelope colors are available, which offers even more benefits when it comes keeping track of donations. We offer a classic white offering envelope and a variety of pastel colored offering envelopes. The colors are unique yet still professional. Also, the blank envelope leaves plenty of room for you to print your Tithe, Offering, Mission, Building, and other Church information.

By strategically using certain colors and asking for donors to print details on the outside of the envelope, you’ll be better able to track of donations given to the organization. For instance, offering envelopes help the church keep track of donations for accounting purposes. The envelopes also help with accountability and special collections. In many cases, special colors will be used as custom tithe and offering envelopes to gather donations for specific programs. The church can measure the general level of member commitment by using standardized offering envelopes.

A Call to Action

Offering envelopes are one of the most effective direct mail fundraising tactics. They encourage systematic giving by inviting every member to participate, and they’re easy to send out to large groups at a low cost.

The envelopes serve as a symbol that giving is critical to establishing a long-term sustainable ministry. Also, people are more likely to give if they are asked and then presented with an easy way to give securely.

Not Only for Churches…

Nonprofit organizations all around the world benefit from the use of these church money envelopes. Direct mailings have proven to be highly effective for soliciting donations. Nonprofits often use these types of envelopes to streamline monthly and weekly giving systems. Overall, offering envelopes can be used for any event where money collection is involved.
