Why donate?

Side By Side serves as a source of loving support, emotional bonding, prayer, delicious food and, of course, lots of laughter to between 100-200 women in Rochester each year. We also assist women by helping them network in their new community as they arrive to Rochester for medical training. ​But most important of all, through the ministry of Side By Side, the souls of many women, their children and their husbands have been won for Christ. It's an exciting place to be and we would love to have you join us in ministry!

Donations to our Scholarship Fund are used to provide study materials and reduced child care fees to women who identify as being under financial strain. In the fall of 2025, we gave out scholarships totaling $668, removing financial pressure from nine women so that they could attend Side By Side.

Thank you for continuing to care for those in need as we launch our Spring 2026 semester. Your gift is so appreciated!

"And I will make of you a great nation, and I will
​bless you and make your name great, so that you will be a blessing."

Genesis 12:2 ESV
