Financial Support of U.M. ARMY

U.M. ARMY experienced growth in every area in 2009 with over 4,000 volunteers growing in faith and repairing homes and transforming the lives of homeowners in need throughout the country. The U.M. ARMY ministry has been able to make those transforming changes for 31 years and will continue to grow because of the support of people like you!

Most of the funding for individual U.M. ARMY camps comes from our camp participant fees. But, in order to continue to grow in our existing areas, and expand into new regions, we need your help by financially supporting the U.M. ARMY ministry.

We encourage you to support U.M. ARMY either in your region or help us fund the expansion of U.M. ARMY into new areas. Each U.M. ARMY entity has an annual campaign you may support, or you can designate your contributions to one of the areas listed below. You may mail a check to the contact information listed, or online via Pay Pal at the top of the page with a note in the notes section regarding which initiative you would like to fund. Or, you may pay via our United Methodist Advance Number 3021111.

For more information, about U.M. ARMY or how you can support the ministry, please contact U.M. ARMY Fund Development Manager Scott Atnip at (281)728-4593
