Summary: Want info on how to get members and have effective fundraising


Last night, the temple that I belong to had a meeting. Much of
what was discussed at this meeting involved:

	* How to get more families to join the temple.

	* How to get more people involved with the fundraisers
	  (both from inside and outside the temple)

	* How to get more people involved in running the temple.

This time, they got the people by almost cancelling the Rabbi's
contract, blaming him for all their ills.

My question is this: HOW DOES YOUR (insert name of generic
religious institution) ATTRACT NEW MEMBERS, RAISE FUNDS, and GET
PEOPLE INVOLVED? I think that the creative thinkers out there on
the net should be able to come up with some good ideas.

Thank you for your attention.

Daniel

Don't have good ideas if you aren't willing to be responsible for them.
