Case Study: Hosanna Church boosts Easter giving with Pushpay

How One Church Gave Away Their Easter Offering and Ignited a Giving Explosion

Hosanna Church, a church in Minnesota, wanted to make a bold statement for a recent Easter service by giving their entire offering to charity. Their existing online giving platform was cumbersome for both staff and congregation members, creating a challenge for implementing this ambitious plan. This led them to seek a new giving partner and select Pushpay for its professionalism and usability.

By implementing the Pushpay giving platform just one month before the event, the church was able to successfully execute its plan. The solution helped Hosanna Church raise over $200,000 on Easter Sunday, which was a 66% increase from the previous year. This successful outcome, facilitated by Pushpay, has led the church to make "weekend offering giveaways" a recurring event.
