Welcome to the news hub of the WMU Foundation, where we celebrate the remarkable ways God is moving through dedicated believers, churches, and endowment grants across the globe. Every story shared here reflects a legacy of devotion, generosity, and active faith—from local church ministries equipping the next generation to global initiatives fighting for freedom and justice.

Through specialized funds such as the Judith Slayden and David Warren Hayes Endowment, the WMU Foundation provides essential financial support to fight human trafficking, bringing hope and restoration to vulnerable individuals worldwide. We also partner with local congregations through curriculum grants, such as the Jessica Powell Loftis Acteens Grant, Royal Ambassador Curriculum Grant, and Gift of Missions Curriculum Grant, ensuring churches are fully equipped to nurture vibrant, missions-minded young leaders.

Central to our mission is honoring those who paved the way. Through our “Celebrate Her Legacy” series, we pay tribute to pioneering leaders such as Martha McIntosh, the first president of the Woman’s Missionary Union from 1888 to 1892, as well as contemporary leaders like Connie Dixon and Kaye Miller. Their faithful service demonstrates how a single life dedicated to God’s calling can multiply impact across generations.

Whether you are seeking inspiration from local church achievements, looking to learn about available grants and scholarships, or exploring how your own financial gifts can create a lasting legacy, we invite you to explore our latest updates. Together, we are answering the call to go, give, and support kingdom work worldwide.
