The Foundation turned 50!  Established in 1965, the Foundation has a long and rich history of supporting Nebraska United Methodist churches and ministries.

As a way to say thank you for your support over the past 50 years, we have created an endowment fund to support our Nebraska United Methodist Camps. Our goal is to raise $50,000.  Will you help us start the year off right and make a gift to this fund?  If you'd like to contribute with just a click of a button, visit us here.

The Foundation bid farewell to long-time friend and Director of Finance, Rosanne McClarnon, who retired, and welcomed new Director of Finance, Marci Logsdon, in March. 

The Foundation held its first ever vision planning session in April. This session was attended by current and past board members, retired and active pastors, and other friends of the Foundation. It was a time to reflect on accomplishments over the past 50 years and gather ideas on how the Foundation can do even more to support Nebraska churches and ministries over the next 50 years.  If you have feedback on how we can better serve you, email us here. 

The Foundation welcomed three new Board Members and new Board Chair, Doug Skiles, and thanked previous Board Chair, Dave Wilcox, for his 10 years of service.  

The Foundation distributed over $11,000 in scholarships to those students pursuing a career in ministry and over $50,000 in Small Ministry Grants. 

Executive Director, Anita Crisp, visited over 30 churches throughout Nebraska during 2015. She is looking forward to seeing all of you in 2016. 

These are just a few things we were up to in 2015.  As you reflect on your year, we hope it is met with as much joy and gratitude as we have had reflecting on ours.
