We believe in making a difference through volunteering and community service.

 During the month of November 2024 Bement Community members volunteered in 36 cities & towns in 8 states as part of the Bement Gives Back Challenge. $50 for each hour volunteered was contributed by a generous donor.

Here are the results.

 

In anticipation of the Bement Gives Back Challenge in 2025, here's how it will work:

1. Make a donation of any amount to Bement’s Annual Fund. Gifts made between July 1 - November 30, 2025 will qualify.

2. Volunteer—anywhere—between November 1 - December 2, 2025 (Giving Tuesday). 

3.  Log your hours (link to an online form will be posted in November). In addition to your gift, Bement will receive a match for every hour you volunteer in your community.
