Unlike auto-deduction enrollment, with online giving, there's no need for Catholic Argos to ever collect or store the financial account information of supporters. The processing and reporting through online giving is faster and more efficient for bookkeeping purposes, which saves time and labor on the organization’s end. And with more online gifts, the ministry will have fewer amounts of cash to handle.
