Stewardship Pledging

Pledging means making a commitment to support USG financially through the year to come. This form lets us know what you plan to give during the year, whether a one-time gift or a monthly donation. Most people pledge during our Stewardship Annual Campaign, but you can pledge any time. Click here for the Online Stewardship Pledge Form.

To meet our fundraising goal for the 2025-2026 fundraising campaign, we need an average pledge of $2,000 per household per year. Everyone’s participation, regardless of level, is important; and every gift, large or small, helps! You may find this Fair Share Giving Guide helpful. Your generosity is greatly appreciated.


Your gifts of your time, your talent and your treasure are always welcome and gratefully received.

Click Online Payment Center to SET UP AND MAKE several kinds of payments to USG, including your Stewardship pledge payments. You select the pay period (monthly is preferred) and choose to debit your checking account (also preferred) or credit card.


USG also has a text giving option for making contributions and pledge payments via your cell phone.
Text your donation to 215-608-2660.
