Throughout the Meeting’s history, the philanthropy of its participants has formed the necessary fiscal security for the Meeting’s opportunities to serve. We have achieved remarkable stability with our prudent budgeting and tremendously generous support of our families. We thank them and ask you to join us, the undersigned, once again to sustain that tradition with a donation. Our goal is to raise $40,000 this fiscal year.
We ask that each adult involved with the meeting contribute $500 before June 1 to be included in this fiscal year accounting. With that level of assistance, we can meet our budgetary needs, supply tuition assistance for WMM members’ children who attend Friends schools, and continue to make charitable donations to various organizations. Some may not be able to afford this amount; others may be able to offer more. We will gratefully accept gifts from members and attenders of any amount that accords with your income and leading to support our Meeting.
There are many ways to make your contribution:
ONLINE (Recommended): Contribute through Philadelphia Yearly Meeting’s online giving service. You may choose to make your contribution using a credit/debit card or e-check using your checking account. Give Online through PYM
