Thrivent Action Teams Make a Difference

Feb 26, 2024 | News

Did you know that if you’re a Thrivent member (or associate member) you may have at least one $250 grant to help support an organization you care about?

It’s true! Here’s how:

  • Visit Thrivent.com/actionteam
  • Log in or create an account
  • Submit your application
  • Receive your grant gift card & goodie box (with t-shirts, stickers, and more fun!)

If you need some ideas, here are a few ways Thrivent Action Team grants have helped

  • Sullivan Hills Camp and Carol Joy Holling Camp over the past few years:
  • Put together a large auction basket or a few small baskets for fundraising events like our Heart of Camp Gala and Heart of the Hills Benefit Dinner
  • Gather summer care kit items like sunscreen, bug spray, and toiletries campers may have forgotten to pack (shampoo, toothbrush, etc.)
  • Host a bake sale or lemonade stand to raise funds to donate to our Campership program
  • Purchase fabric to make a quilt for the Quilt Auction
  • Collect craft supplies like markers, crayons, colored pencils, and construction paper for campers to use during creative arts time
  • Provide a free-will offering dinner before an Advent or Lent mid-week worship to raise funds for our Campership program

We can’t wait to see what ideas your family comes up with!

If you have any questions about the application or would like to run your idea to support camp by us, contact Trish Haniszewski, Development Officer, at THaniszewski@NLOM.org or 402-944-2544.
