Our 2025 pledge campaign is now underway! Click on the button (above right) to see the report on last year’s campaign. Our annual Pledge Campaign is the most important source of revenue for our FirstU congregation and helps us in our budgeting. The money we raise during our annual Pledge Campaign is used to fund our mission events and activities, operate our church, pay our staff, and maintain our building. The pledge campaign recognizes your intended financial contribution to support FirstU's operations, resources and programs. |

The FirstU community shows its generosity in many ways: with our time, with our compassion, with our ideas, and with our spirits. We also need to follow through with financial generosity. Proper funding allows our congregation to achieve our many goals: liberal religious exploration, social justice action, refugee support, and community building. There are many ways to support your church - monthly donations, legacy giving, one-time donations, and more.

Thank you for your past generosity. the pledge team is now accepting pledges. Donations are welcome, of course, at any time.
Your pledges will nurture and support our community, and allow us to plan our programming year with any eye to what resources are available.

Last year’s campaign - held from September 24th, 2023 through late November, 2023 - secured financial support for FirstU throughout 2024, for all our resources and programs. How much to give depends very much on your personal situation. Click here for guidelines on giving. "I give so there is a place for truth and hope to grow."
