We encourage you to make an operating pledge and a capital campaign commitment that are true expressions of your commitment to the church – gifts that are significant, meaningful and generous.

                                                                                                                                                          We ask you to consider an operating pledge equal to 5% of your household income. Why 5%? Because churches that are supported at this level have the financial foundation to be responsive to the needs of their congregations and communities through worship, programs and outreach.
                                                                                                                                                          • If you are already giving 5%, we ask you to increase your pledge amount for 2012 by 3% or more.
                                                                                                                                                          • If you are giving less than 5% of your household income, we ask you to make a financial commitment for 2012 that moves you toward that benchmark.

The goal for Unity Tomorrow is $8 million.
                                                                                                                                                          • We ask you to consider a financial commitment equal to five times your annual operating pledge, payable over three years. For example, someone pledging $1,500 to the Operating Budget makes a financial commitment to the Capital Campaign five times that amount, which is $7,500. Paid over three years, that’s $208/month.
