Ben Hill United Methodist Church (BHUMC) has established a Legacy Endowment Giving (LEG) committee to ensure our economic health for generations to come. In conjunction with the Georgia United Methodist Foundation (GUMF), the LEG committee has created an endowment fund program to support the ongoing ministries and longevity of the church. The endowment fund program provides a vehicle for members and friends of BHUMC to make perpetual and lasting charitable gifts to the church.
