Dear Friend,
As members of Swarthmore’s historic Black neighborhood and the Wesley African Methodist Episcopal Church, serving our community since 1921, we write with an urgent appeal. More than a place of worship, our church is a cornerstone for children’s programs, outreach, and community gatherings. This October marks our 104th anniversary.
Critical repairs are now needed. Most urgently, waterproofing our basement, which hosts youth activities, children’s church, and vital outreach. Without immediate action, this space and the services it supports are at risk.
An anonymous donor has generously pledged to match every dollar raised up to $60,000. Your contribution will have double the impact. To ensure transparency and sustainability, we’re completing this project through our nonprofit (501(c)(3)), making your gift tax-deductible.
Your support—whether financial, in-kind, or volunteer—will help safeguard this sacred space and strengthen our neighborhood for generations to come.
To contribute or learn more, contact us at (484) 479-3259 or wesleyameswarthmore@yahoo.com. Thank you for standing with us.
Warmly,
Wesley AME Church, Swarthmore
