Read about our Challenge below…

Wow. You showed up—generously, courageously, and creatively. And because of you, our Rooted & Rising Spring Giving Challenge was a resounding success! Together, this community:

  • Raised $30,250 in one-time gifts

  • Increased monthly autogiving by $1,529.35

  • Engaged 124 givers — kids, teenagers, and adults—who leaned in to invest in something bigger than themselves

These aren’t just numbers. They’re roots going deeper and shoots reaching higher. Every gift makes it possible for Fabric to keep experimenting with what it means to be church for today—a space where curiosity is welcome, belonging is real, and love shows up in tangible ways.

Whether you gave for the first time or recalibrated your giving to match your values, thank you. You’re helping make Fabric a community that doesn’t just hold together but grows stronger, bolder, and more generous with every season.

With gratitude and awe,
The Fabric Financial Stewardship Team (AKA The "Swell" Team

Fabric and Friends - As spring unfolds around us, we’re reminded that growth doesn’t happen overnight—it takes roots, nourishment, and community. That’s why we’re inviting you into Fabric’s Spring Giving Challenge: a chance to deepen our shared roots and rise into what’s next, together.

Our goals are bold but simple:

🌱 Engage 100 total donors (first-time or returning)

Regardless of your history with Fabric, please hear that your participation matters! Giving is one way we each help weave something real—something rooted in love, belonging, and purpose.

Dig in a little deeper…

Our Spring Giving Challenge, which runs April 10-May 4, is an opportunity for us to come together and ensure the stability of our financial roots. Our goal is to have at least 100 participants contribute to: 1) raising $30K in one-time gifts, and 2) increasing automated giving by at least $1500/month.  (See our Mid-Year Financial Update for details of our financial highlights and challenges.)

Wondering how we’ll make our $30,000 goal with 100 participants? The pyramid gives you an idea. 

The Spring Giving Challenge goal of increasing automated giving by at least $1500/month is designed to help keep Fabric financially sustainable.  This goal is also an annual reminder to all of us to recalibrate our giving with the value that Fabric brings to our lives.  Wrestling with and wondering about a financial commitment to Fabric, or any organization, can be difficult.  As Fabric, we believe it’s important for our spending to align with our values.  If Fabric is important to you, this is one opportunity to show it!  To the right is a chart illustrating how Fabric is currently supported by autogiving - specifically, the percentage of Fabric households enrolled in autogiving that give certain amounts each month.  If you have questions about how to enroll in or change your autogiving email katy@fabricmpls.com.
