Case Study: Meta Church surpasses its giving goal with Pushpay

How Meta Church Was Able to Help People Get Connected, Give, and Contribute

Meta Church, a church plant in New York City led by Pastor Ricky Ortiz, faced the challenge of raising $15,000 to fund its expansion. The young church needed new methods to keep potential donors engaged and a simple, culturally appropriate way for them to give to its ambitious campaign. They partnered with the vendor Pushpay for its digital giving solution.

By implementing Pushpay's mobile giving tools, including text-to-give and a custom church app, Meta Church created an easy onramp for donations and used notifications to update its community. The solution from Pushpay was highly successful, helping the church not only meet but significantly exceed its goal by raising $22,700. Over 98% of the total amount was given digitally through Pushpay. The funds allowed the church to secure a permanent venue, purchase streaming equipment, and support two international church plants.
