The campaign yielded impressive results, with £5 million raised in the initial six months and a remarkable 123% surge in donations within the first year. Both worshipers and staff expressed heightened feelings of pride and ownership. Notably, the client acknowledged the campaign's positive impact in breaking down organisational silos and closing the gap between St Martin's messaging and its tangible actions, fostering a more authentic connection with the audience.
