Just one dollar a day can change a child's life....
We are looking for 343 special angels to pledge $1 per day for 3 years - a total of $1,095 that can be paid in annual, semi annual or monthly installments. We will receive a 100% match grant from an anonymous donor if we raise $375,000. Your gift will be doubled if we meet our goal! This program is ideal for UMW or UMM groups, churches, businesses or individuals. Donations will be applied to the Odom Endowment Fund and will make a lasting difference in the lives of hundreds of children served by Epworth each year. You don't have to pay today, simply pledge now and pay later. You can indicate your giving preference on the pledge form or call us @ 314.961.5718 to request more information. The countdown is on... 285angels are still needed - you can be one! The angels who have already pledged one dollar a day...

Be a hero to a child thisChristmas
Sponsor a child or family for the holidays. We will provide you with a special wish list for a child or family in one of our programs. You do the shopping and fulfill the holiday wishes of a child in need. We serve children from birth to 21 years of age, so you can choose the age and gender of the child you sponsor. We need your help to share the holiday spirit with children who would not otherwise experience that special joy Christmas brings.
If you prefer not to shop, we can do it for you. Financial contributions to the Epworth Christmas Program are always welcome. We also have a list of more general items if you or group would like to hold a gift collection drive. For more information, please call
Amy LaBelle at 314.918.3350 or email |
