    Contribution

    A gift of $500 enables a woman to receive the Susanna Wesley Award of Excellence. The gift underwrites costs associated with the award; the balance is used to support the world-wide ministries of the General Commission on United Methodist Men. In addition to ministries to and with men, the commission supports the Society of St. Andrew, The Upper Room Prayer Line and scouting ministries including Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, Camp Fire, and Big Brothers Big Sisters. The gift may come from an individual, a United Methodist Church organization or a fund-raising activity in the honoree’s name.
