At United Madison Christian Givers, we come alongside local churches and ministries so we can reach further and multiply impact together in Madison. 
 

We know ministry brings both joys and challenges—balancing growing needs, limited resources, and the call to share Christ’s love with the community. United Madison Christian Givers (UMCG) exists to help shoulder that load. We come alongside churches and ministries by pooling resources, connecting leaders, and creating opportunities where everyone contributes and everyone benefits.

 

In addition, UMCG is leading a focused initiative to address the issue of trafficking in our area by advancing awareness and prevention. This issue impacts the most vulnerable individuals facing overlapping challenges such as homelessness, addiction, poverty, abuse and trauma—and they experience repeated daily victimization. We believe it is the Church’s responsibility to respond collectively, especially given the limited investment in this critical issue to date.  One way to engage is by inviting staff and congregation learn about organizations such as Zeteo Community. Zeteo serves women who have been sexually exploited by providing residential programming and supportive community in which they are free to dream and thrive.

 

What this means for your church:

• We can connect families and individuals seeking a church home directly to you.

• Your congregation can engage in practical outreach through our partnership with Families Connect WI’s CarePortal.

• You gain access to a growing network of ministries for prayer, encouragement, and shared resources.

 

How your church can help advance the UMCG mission:

• Give UMCG a platform (service announcement, newsletter, or host a gathering) to share our vision.

• Encourage your members to attend a quarterly event and experience this Kingdom collaboration firsthand.

• Explore a partnership through funding opportunities and/or contributing financially as a member.
