Frequently Asked Questions

Can we fundraise for multiple causes at the same time?

Yes. You can add different designs for different causes — mission trip merch, youth group gear, and general church apparel can all live in one shop. You track which products fund which cause.

Will this work for a small congregation?

Absolutely. There are no minimums. If your church has 50 members but each one shares the link with family and friends, you can reach hundreds of supporters. Remote members and alumni are often your biggest buyers.

How do we handle the design if we don't have a graphic designer?

Our built-in mockup editor lets you upload any image or logo. Many churches use free tools like Canva to create designs, then upload them to Bear Grips. Simple text-based designs work great too.

Is there a way to see how much we've raised?

Yes. Your Pro Shop dashboard shows all orders and earnings. You can track sales in real time and share progress updates with your congregation.
