Context
The Church & Supporter Engagement department aims to care, connect and inspire individuals and churches through engaging events, supporter appreciation, inspiring phone calls, and insightful data work. We support and drive projects from the wider Fundraising and Communications division because we are passionate that individuals give or keep on giving and that churches are compelled to partner with CAP. The Church & Supporter Engagement Operations department is made up of the Church & Supporter Events team, Church & Supporter Care team, Church & Supporter Connection team, and Supporter Insight & Data team.
Purpose
The Supporter Connection team deals with an exciting array of phone projects from the wider Fundraising and Communications division. They conduct primarily outbound telephone communications with a wide range of individuals and churches, inspiring them to engage financially, practically and spiritually with the work of CAP.
Passion
The Church & Supporter Connection team is an outward focused team of passionate communicators who love to listen, engage and inspire existing and potential supporters. They connect with individuals and churches over the phone and in turn encourage and inspire them to connect with CAP further. The Church & Supporter Connection team seeks to represent CAP and our Christ Centered values to our supporters in a way which helps them to feel both appreciated and connected. Whether we are encouraging regular financial giving, inviting people to events, or thanking a brilliant supporter, our Church & Supporter Connection team are passionate about communicating CAP's vision and mission in creative ways on the phone.
