Pledge Drive 2026 FAQ:


Where and how do I submit a pledge?

The best way to submit your pledge is on our Website here. Printed pledge sheets are available in either the COL or CTK narthex.


What are the drivers for seeking a 6% increase in 2026 giving?

Our UNITY budget needs to grow to support our mission.  One area is staffing.  Our wonderful staff deserve cost of living increases and pay that matches the area’s job market.  This is also important for UNITY to be competitive in hiring new staff and reaching a staffing level that supports our congregation and its missions both internally and externally with our partners.  Another budget need is to address deferred property items at both campuses.  Examples include responding to city inspection issues found with the COL fire suppression system, repair/replacement of doors and windows, and carpet cleaning/replacement.  Dealing with these items will keep our properties protected, secure, and attractive.


I already give electronically, do I need to submit a pledge?

YES! We’re asking all UNITY members, including those utilizing the EFT/CC giving option, to make a pledge during our appeal.  The automatic nature of the EFT/CC giving is great, but tends to result in less annual increases in giving than members giving through others ways.  After submitting your pledge, please update your giving amount in the Vanco page.


How do I know what I gave or pledged last year?  Also, I don’t remember my envelope number and I need that to complete my pledge. What do I do?

You can find all of this on our main Stewardship page.  Click here and then scroll to where it says “Check your 2025 General Fund Giving."  Enter the requested identifying information and you will see your three most recent years of giving so you can track your own giving pattern.  If you scroll a bit lower, you’ll see “Find My Envelope #.”  If you do not know your envelope number, enter any email address you believe we have on file with us and our system will associate that email with your envelope number.
