Previously, many members struggled to connect with service opportunities in our local area. unaware of ways to contribute to the needs around them. With the introduction of Every Neighbor, however, a user-friendly resource emerged that bridged the gap between our Stonegate Church family and the community.
The platform simplified the process of volunteering, offering clear roles for small projects like donation drives and larger events, such as the Teacher Winter Wishes Spectacular. Every volunteer could easily see the specific role they were signing up for, understand how their contributions supported the event or non-profit, and know exactly how long their help would be needed. Additionally, essential details like parking instructions and whom to report to upon arrival were readily available.
“As our members embraced the platform, we witnessed a remarkable mobilization of hundreds of volunteers. Once disconnected from local opportunities, they now enthusiastically stepped forward to serve.” – Kristine Busse
The impact extended beyond mere numbers; our local partners benefited tremendously from the influx of volunteers and donations. They were not only blessed by the increased support but also saw their missions and voices amplified, expanding their influence in the community.
In turn, this collaboration led to a ripple effect, touching more lives and strengthening the bonds within our community. With Every Neighbor, we discovered a powerful way to unite our church family around a common goal: serving those in need and making a meaningful difference together.
