PROJECT SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES

Build Something That Lasts

Every project at The Nest serves a larger vision:

The campus increasingly contributes to the mission it houses.

Some projects create spaces for prayer, discipleship, families, and hospitality.

Others help create long-term sustainability through events, partnerships, and community engagement.

Below are the projects currently available for sponsorship.

CURRENT PRIORITIES

1. Campus Painting Project

Goal: $25,000

A fresh exterior paint refresh is one of the highest-impact improvements we can make for both ministry use and weddings/events.

Because of volunteer labor, discounted paint, and below-market contractor support, we're able to complete a project that would normally cost approximately $150,000 for only $25,000.

Impact:

  • First impressions

  • Event revenue potential

  • Campus preservation

  • Community hospitality

2. Sanctuary Restoration

Goal: $15,000

The sanctuary is one of the most beautiful spaces on the property and will serve worship gatherings, weddings, prayer events, and special services for years to come.

Funding will help restore:

  • Flooring

  • Paint

  • Lighting improvements

  • Event readiness

Through volunteer labor and discounted services, this work can be completed for a fraction of traditional renovation costs.

Estimated value created: $75,000–$100,000+

3. Front Room Coffee

Goal: $20,000

The Front Room will become a welcoming third space for Pasadena.

Funding helps provide:

  • Furniture

  • Decor

  • Basic electrical and plumbing improvements

  • Mini-split HVAC

  • Equipment and buildout needs

Our goal is to create a beautiful, community-focused coffee shop that serves neighbors while contributing to long-term sustainability.

Estimated value created: $80,000–$100,000+

4. Kids & Family Spaces

Goal: $10,000–15,000

We're creating safe, engaging environments where children can encounter Jesus and families can thrive.

Funding helps support:

  • Playground improvements

  • Turf installation

  • Shade structures

  • Classroom upgrades

  • Storage improvements

  • Safety enhancements

TDCA is already helping support portions of this project, but additional funding allows us to complete the vision.

Estimated value created: $40,000+

5. Bathroom Upgrades

Goal: $10,000

Through volunteer labor and strategic stewardship, we're able to complete meaningful improvements to campus restrooms for a fraction of market cost.

Funding supports:

  • Fixture upgrades

  • Finishes

  • Accessibility improvements

  • Event readiness

Estimated value created: $50,000–75,000+

6. Classroom HVAC Improvements

Goal: $5,000–10,000

New wall-mounted HVAC units will provide reliable comfort for classrooms and ministry spaces while avoiding major infrastructure costs.

This helps prepare the campus for:

  • Children's ministry

  • School use

  • Midweek ministry

  • Community gatherings

LOOKING AHEAD

As these projects are completed, they help move us toward a future where:

The campus serves the city and helps sustain the mission.

Every completed project strengthens ministry capacity, improves hospitality, creates community value, and moves The Nest closer to long-term sustainability.
