Now Accepting Clothing Donations


Please continue to bring gently used clothing to KUMC during business hours, Monday - Thursday, 9am-3pm, or Sundays to the Connection Center. Your donations will help others...and care for the environment! Invite your friends to bring their donations to KUMC as well! 

  • We accept women's, men's and children's clothing that are in very good condition - no rips, holes, or stains.
  • We also urgently need donations of new underwear in all sizes for kids, women, and men.
  • Towels, curtains, and bed linens--are all accepted too! 

LifeBridge Money Matters

LifeBridge at KUMC is launching a new program called "LifeBridge Money Matters" to replace the former United Way program, ASSET, that is not being offered this fall. LifeBridge Money Matters is a financial empowerment program that provides 5 weeks of individual financial coaching and the opportunity to earn a $300 savings match with the completion of the course. The class started the first week in October, and we need your help to keep this life-changing financial education program going.


Will you consider sponsoring the $300 savings match to help transform someone's future? Or, you could also sponsor together with a group. Any donation you can give will help Money Matters participants to break the cycle of poverty. Ready to help others build new bridges to new futures?
