Each need will be reviewed and prayed for before posting, usually within 24-48 hours.
How long does a posted need stay on the website?
Needs remain on the site until the goal is reached or a standard maximum of 90 days. Exceptions can be made for special circumstances by request.
What is the church’s responsibility as a Blessity partner?
Each partner church is responsible for meeting with the person requesting funds and gathering the information needed to submit the need on the Blessity website. We encourage churches to inform their congregations of their partnership with Blessity.org. This can be done in a bulletin, a verbal announcement or on their website.
How does a church become a partner?
An authorized representative from the church may sign up on our home page. Needs may be submitted upon approval (usually within 2-3 business days).
What information does the church need to submit a need?
You will need the name and contact information for the recipient, along with the service provider’s contact information (utility, hospital, mechanic, landlord). You will also need to give a brief explanation of the recipient’s situation that has led them to having this need. A photo of the recipient is highly recommended.
