United Women in Faith – Day of Giving: March\u00a0 23<\/em>\"UWF<\/a><\/strong><\/h4>\n

On March 23rd in 1869,<\/span> a group of eight intrepid women founded the Woman\u2019s Foreign Missionary Society, the forerunner of United Women in Faith<\/a>.
\nTheir vision was to create educational opportunities and provide health care to women in India. These founding women invited others to join their mission through their prayers and two pennies. Thus, a movement of faith and generosity in action was born.<\/p>\n

The Legacy Endowment Fund<\/a> of United Women in Faith is a permanently invested endowment that supports the work of improving the lives of women, children, & youth at home and abroad. The annual Day of Giving<\/a> on March 23rd<\/span> is the single largest fundraising activity for the Legacy Fund each year.
\nOn this day, United Women in Faith members and supporters across the country gather
\nlocally and virtually to contribute to and raise funds for the endowment.<\/p>\n

We invite all Campbell UWF Members to generously give on the Day of Giving!
\nGive securely online at bit.ly\/DayofGiving2026<\/a> or Text Give to 20503.<\/p>\n
