Community Outreach

Unity of Fort Myers Supports the needs of the Community and beyond with our monthly Community Outreach tithes.

2025

May: All Souls Episcopal Outreach: The mission of this charity is to offer food, clothing, healthcare, ID assistance, bikes and hot lunches to the community. Congregants volunteer daily.

May: Guardians of Florida: Volunteers assist in the removal of animals from abusive or neglectful owners, puppy mills and shelters. They provide temporary, foster homes and appropriate care, feeding and adoptive homes.

ADOPT A SCHOOL - Ray V Portiff Elementary School

We adopted the teachers to help them with the school supplies they pay for out of their pockets! The teachers say :Thank You" for all the Halloween Candy for their Trunk & Treat Halloween Party.

Ray V Portoff School UFM team 

   UFM members collected hundreds of supplies for the TEACHERS, grades  Pre K through 5th.  On Dec 15th we sponsored the CHRISTMAS breakfast meeting and presented the gifts to very grateful teachers.
