New in 2023, the “Build a Bouquet” campaign invites us to celebrate all the individuals and programs that help Presbyterian Women bloom in so many spectacular ways and places.
Your gift will strengthen Presbyterian Women’s Annual Fund, the soil from which every PW ministry grows. After you give online, you’ll receive a link to several floral cards that can be downloaded or emailed as a symbol of your gift.
What is the “Build a Bouquet” campaign?
We cultivate our PW garden every time we nurture our PW Purpose, either individually or as a community. Every kindness, every prayer, every instance we build our PW community through participation and support, we beautify God’s world through loving service as Presbyterian Women. In other words, together, in faithful community, we are in full beautiful bloom!
Your online gift to the “Build a Bouquet” campaign will be recognized with a thank-you email and receipt (of course!), and you will also receive a card featuring a bouquet. The card may be emailed to the person or group you honored, or you can save or print the card as a visual reminder of the many blooms in the PW garden.

These symbolic bouquets will be displayed (digitally!) during the 2024 Churchwide Gathering of Presbyterian Women.
