Fund Raising Policy
The aim of fundraising activities held at First United Methodist Church Killeen, or sponsored by the church, is to encourage alternative ways to support outreach and missions of our Church financially. Before a fundraising activity held at or sponsored by the church can occur, the action must be reviewed and approved by the proper Church committee or Church staff. All receipts will be given to the counters for proper deposit. A detailed record of revenue and expenses will be recorded for each event and accounted for in the Treasurer’s report.

For all approved fundraising activities, committees and groups must adhere to written guidelines detailing the proper use of Church facilities. In fairness to our members and constituents, church-sponsored fundraising activities cannot be a vehicle for promoting the business of individual Church members or constituents to the exclusion of others. Therefore, proposed fundraising activities will not be approved, where a specific individual or individuals can profit on items sold or otherwise promote their businesses. This limitation does not include craft fairs, where any interested member or constituent can take part in the fundraising activity. Actual approval needed for requested dates, use of a particular room, or building use policies is up to the board of Trustees or the Church office staff.
