Your Giving
Matters
When you give to the ministry of Blackhawk, lives are transformed. Worshiping God through releasing financial resources is a significant way to participate in telling His story in our community and world.
Generosity
Generosity is ultimately a response to God’s incredible generosity toward us. He invites us to participate in His work through our giving—to experience the freedom, joy, and purpose that comes from living with open hands.
Living generously takes intentionality. Wherever you are right now is the perfect place to take your next step.

General Fund
General Fund gifts support our annual budget – the primary way we pursue our mission as a church – to build a loving community that follows Christ, in order to reach a community that is lost without him. It supports everything from outreach to staff salaries to building upkeep.
Debt Reduction Fund
Advent Conspiracy
During the Christmas season, we join a movement called Advent Conspiracy—an invitation to pause, remember God’s generosity in giving us Jesus, and respond by being generous to the world around us. As a church, we want to step away from the consumerism that often defines this season and give toward the things Jesus cares about. Through our collective generosity, we partner with organizations doing meaningful, impactful work in Madison and around the world, reminding people that they’re seen, valued, and deeply loved by God.
