Wear your faith when you make merch for your church. Merch can benefit your congregation in more ways than you might think.<\/span><\/p>\n

Use merch as a means for fundraising. With Spreadshop<\/a>, you can take back a portion of the profits beyond our base price. This works in the favor of shop owners – especially when you\u2019re raising money for a good cause.<\/span><\/p>\n

Church merch can also bring a community together. Wear custom t-shirts to church retreats, trips and events. You\u2019ll create memories – and take great photos – that you\u2019ll always cherish. It\u2019s easy to wear your faith when you use Spreadshop<\/a> for your merch needs!<\/span><\/p>\n

Easy Shop Setup <\/picture><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Easy Shop Setup<\/h2>\n

Launch your shop in minutes, hey, even seconds! To open a Spreadshop<\/a> all you need is your name, email and shop name (which you can change anytime). Uploading designs might seem overwhelming at first, but you likely already have content that will look great on your merch.<\/span><\/p>\n

Use your church name or logo. It\u2019s likely you already have one that you use in marketing materials and for promotion. You can upload your designs as jpg and png files. Looking for design inspo? <\/span>Canva<\/a><\/strong> offers FREE and paid tiers where you can make print-ready graphics. They have so many design elements and templates to choose from. You won\u2019t leave the platform empty-handed!<\/span><\/p>\n

Spreadshop<\/a> has hundreds of products you can use for your church merch. The inventory you offer is up to you, just like the theme. Customization is going to be key to your success. Tell your story, your way.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fundraise With Merch<\/picture><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Fundraise With Merch<\/h2>\n

Bake sales and raffles are go-to fundraiser options, but selling merch offers a different fundraising experience. People want to feel like they\u2019re part of something bigger than themselves. And Spreadshop<\/a> can help you do that with your church merch.<\/span><\/p>\n

Non-profit <\/span>Children Mending Hearts<\/strong><\/span><\/a> used merch to raise money when they couldn\u2019t see each other in-person and have their normal fundraising events. Having a merch shop gave them the opportunity to connect with people virtually, plus, it was FREE and easy.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe biggest attraction we had to Spreadshop<\/a> was [that] it was print-on-demand,\u201d said a spokesperson. \u201cSince we\u2019re a small non-profit, we don\u2019t have the resources or space to produce and store a full run of T-shirts.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

You don\u2019t need to have a big operation to raise funds for your church. A church of any size can set up a shop and start making money with the support of their community.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
Faith in Merch<\/picture><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Faith in Merch<\/h2>\n

Every week, churches open shops with us. We\u2019ve seen a range of designs and messages that speak to faith. Check out what churches are doing with their merch!<\/span><\/p>\n

Mount Calvary Community Church<\/a><\/strong> has a dynamic logo that stands out on all their merch products. They call themselves \u201cthe biggest little church in Omaha\u201d and no doubt they\u2019ve got the best church merch in Omaha. <\/span>Living Stones Church<\/a><\/strong> based in Nevada have found a way to modernize their merch. They\u2019ve added simple yet defined graphics to their merch beyond a traditional logo. This helps target multiple demographics.<\/span><\/p>\n

St. Matthew\u2019s Church<\/a><\/strong> decided to commemorate their 40th anniversary with merch. If they\u2019re putting on an event, this merch gives them the opportunity to tell a story and honor the years they\u2019ve been active in their community. Merch is more than just t-shirts and hoodies; it helps send a message.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
Reach Your Community<\/picture><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Reach Your Community<\/h2>\n

Church merch strengthens the bond you have with your <\/span>community<\/a><\/strong>. It\u2019s a physical reminder of what you have in common: your faith. You can promote your merch to members of your congregation in a way that works for you.<\/span><\/p>\n

Make dedicated flyers and post them on billboards at different places in your community. Hand them out at the end of mass. Remind people at church events. If your church has a social media presence, even better.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Create content that features your merch in a relatable way and be direct with your messaging. If you want to drum up even more interest, consider doing a giveaway. This will create new conversations and interest.<\/span><\/p>\n
