How to Get FPU Started
Would you like to get FPU approved for your installation?
Chaplains
-
- Schedule a meeting with decision makers.
- Share with them the information portion in the Military Information Guide.
- Show the orientation video.
- Make sure your leadership will allow you to host FPU at the chapel.
-
- Host previews around normal chapel times, either immediately before or following a service.
- Go wild with promotions (See Promotional Ideas). Use bulletin inserts, hand out brochures, and make announcements during chapel. Show the military announcement videos during services and classes.
- Personally invite at least 12 servicemembers.
- Use outside promotions, such as installation newspapers, magazines, chapel marquees or other signs. Encourage servicemembers to bring family and friends.
-
-
- Encourage soldiers to enroll in the class and purchase their FPU military membership (one membership per family unit).
-
- Order leadership materials for you and a membership for each family unit enrolled.
- Send an order form with one check.
- Allow 7–10 days for delivery.
-
- Think outside the box! FPU can be used for the entire base or for specific groups, such as singles, couples, etc.
- Allow two hours per session: one hour each for the video and small-group portion.

The United States Military has sponsored many servicemembers to take the course, but the need is much greater than the available funds. You can help.
Dave recently created Adopt A Base—a program designed to give Americans the opportunity to sponsor a portion of the cost of FPU membership and material for servicemembers. To find a sponsor for your installation, contact Chris Woodard, Financial Peace Military Advisor, at 800.754.4211 ext. 5339.
