For churches & care ministries
One tool for every family your care ministry serves.
Church care ministries use Rally Around You to give every family they serve — new babies, surgeries, illness, loss — a private circle where the congregation can sign up to help. Coordinators manage many circles from one dashboard, without stitching together SignUpGenius, group texts, and spreadsheets.
Church care ministries do sacred work with a lot of glue-code: a meal train here, a prayer chain there, a spreadsheet of volunteers, a group text for rides. Rally Around You holds it all together — one tool, one dashboard, every family you serve in one place.
Common use cases
New-baby meal trains
Every new baby in the congregation gets a circle. Members claim meals for the first six weeks — the coordinator sets it up in under 10 minutes.
Surgery & illness support
Coordinate meals, rides to appointments, and visits for members in a hard health season, without living in the group text.
Bereavement care
When a member of the congregation dies, a circle is standing by for the family — meals, visits, prayer, and follow-up for the first year.
Deacon & elder coordination
Care team members see all active circles in one dashboard so no family falls through the cracks.

Frequently asked questions
Is Rally Around You designed for church care ministries?
Yes. Multi-circle coordination, templates for common care seasons, and a coordinator dashboard are built specifically for the way church care ministries actually work.
How much does it cost for a church?
The free tier fits many small ministries. Larger churches with many concurrent circles use a paid plan — see the pricing page or contact us for a ministry demo.
Can multiple coordinators share one dashboard?
Yes. Deacons, elders, and care team members can each be added as coordinators with visibility into every active circle.
Does Rally replace SignUpGenius for our meal trains?
For most care ministries, yes. Rally adds messaging, updates, reminders, and a coordinator dashboard that SignUpGenius doesn't offer.
