The Change for Life campaign is great for any church, church ministry or group of people who, as a family, want to help support The Center.
Get involved by pledging to fill 8 oz. baby bottles or changelopes with loose change, cash or checks to help raise money for women facing unplanned pregnancies. This is an easy and fun way to raise money for The Center. We provide the baby bottles and changelopes you can pick them up whenever you are ready. Your group selects the number of these that you would like, and when to participate. Most churches and groups participate for 3-4 weeks at a time. For more information, email: thecenterwf@gmail.com or call The Center at 940-322-4883.
Many participate during our specific Change for Life Campaigns, but dates are flexible.

September-November – Give thanks for the Gift of Life through the Change for Life Campaign
Purpose of the Change for Life Campaign:
- To celebrate and promote the value of Life, born & unborn.
- To raise the crucial funds needed for the ministry
- To educate church members about the free services The Center provides to the community
- To promote unity within the church body by providing an opportunity for the church to participate in a local missions outreach project
Church attendees are invited to take home empty baby bottles and/or changelopes and fill them with currency, coins, or a check and then return filled to their church.
This is an opportunity for the families to have hands-on involvement in a project that saves the lives of unborn children and makes an eternal difference in the lives of women and families.
Here’s How It Works:
Let us know how many bottles or changelopes you need. On a designated Sunday at your church or group, you make baby bottles or changelopes available for families and individuals to take home and fill with coins, bills or even checks. About three or four weeks later, have them return these to you on an announced date. You return the bottles and changelopes to The Center, preferably with a check for the total amount you have collected.
This is one of the easiest ways to collect funds to help save lives and protect futures. As you and your family fill up the bottle or changelope, say a prayer each time you drop in your change. This is a great ongoing reminder to pray for The Center as well a good reminder about how wonderful God is to create life and how you are making a difference to protect it.
Would you consider partnering with us?

Many people work with their church to have the Change for Life Campaign promoted by their pastor from the pulpit. We also have a short video that helps spread the word.
Gifts received during the Change for Life Campaigns are used to connect women in our community to life-affirming resources for their pregnancy, including pregnancy testing and ultrasounds, parenting education, material assistance and abortion recovery support, and also our newly developed STI testing program to promote health, wellness, and foster healthy relationships.
Change for Life Campaigns not only help women and families – they strengthen and bless churches and the body of Christ as a whole as we partner together to see life cherished and supported at The Center in Wichita Falls and Vernon.
