2021 Women of Compassion Online Event
2021-03-22 - 2021-12-31 | Online
The 2021 Women of Compassion Forum is now online!
Our annual WOC Forum was held to decide which BCHFS special project will receive funding. Half of the income raised by the group is used toward the project of their choosing. The other half will be used to provide vital operating income for BCHFS ministry work.
Members contribute $500 annually or $50.00 for 10 Months to the Women of Compassion fund at Baptist Children’s Home & Family Services within one calendar year. Members can pay securely online by visiting BCHFS.com and clicking on the “Give Now” button at the top of the page.
