We are proud to be the site for the United Methodist Youth Egan Warming Center Emergency Night Shelter. When operating, capacity is 40 people sleeping on mats for youth up to 21 years old.

We regularly prepare nonperishable lunch bags that we serve to our neighbors in need.

We gather personal items for Hope & Safety Alliance to give to people who are in crisis.

We are sponsors of the Orphans, Elderly, Disabled Development Organization Based in Cambodia. OEDDO is an organization that responds with compassion and love to help people in crisis, especially those who are most vulnerable – orphans, elders, and the disabled.

Advocate for a more sustainable Earth. FUMC has partnered with 350 Eugene to advocate for Climate Justice.

We are constantly collecting for Food For Lane County and have volunteered there often. Help us fill our barrels!

Quilts for those who need to know they are cared for are made monthly at FUMC. Join our quilters’ group! Our quilts go all over town to places that give love.
