Thank you to everyone who has made their annual pledge for the upcoming 2025-26 fiscal year, which begins July 1. As of 3/17/2025, 183 people and families have made pledges totaling $672,200. With the additional $17,300 pledged to the Angel Fund, we are over halfway to our goal! We have had 44 first-time pledgers (welcome!), 16 re-committed pledgers (welcome back!), and 71% of all pledge families have increased their commitment from last year (most welcome!).

We are also hearing from some of our members and friends that they are uncertain what, if anything, they can commit given the their job situation, including recent layoffs in the federal workforce. In response we have had several families express interest in making an additional one-time pledge to help make up for those who cannot support the pledge drive this year. We invite you to make an additional pledge to the Angel Fund, which is a “this year only” gift that will not increase your base pledge of record but will help us offset the lost revenue from federal workers and others who are being affected by the government cuts.

If you would like to discuss your potential pledge commitment, contact Jeff Wilklow at frcounsel@gmail.com or Anna Hargrave at annaharg@gmail.com for more information or to set up a call with a visiting steward.

Please consider your commitment to the work of All Souls and invest as generously as you can to help us continue to provide a loving and resilient community in troubled times. And thank you, thank you, thank you!
