Each year, Exodus Homes’ offers the William Mangum Honor Cards for the holidays. The annual sale of Honor Cards is a primary source of funding for the organization. Each card is $5.00. On the inside, the recipient is informed that someone made a gift to Exodus Homes in their honor, and gives information about the supportive housing program. 100% of the proceeds from the sale of Honor Cards goes to support the operating expenses of Exodus Homes. Today, The Honor Card program is in its 35th year, and has raised almost $10 million dollars  to support homeless and needy people in our state.

William Mangum is a well known Greensboro artist who befriended a homeless man in 1987, and the experience inspired him to use his artistic and publishing skills to make The Honor Card program one of the most effectively managed charitable programs in the country. Within each beautiful annual painting is the subtle image and story of a homeless person. With underwriting support from Wells Fargo Bank along with Mike and Sarah Kearney, The Honor Card program has expanded to thirteen communities in N.C., and has received national attention for helping organizations who serve homeless and needy people. Exodus Homes is The Honor Card program for the Foothills area.

Check out last year’s card, the 2021 “A New Way” William Mangum Honor Card:

“People have been requesting 2021 Honor Cards for the past few weeks, and they are here! It has become a gift-giving tradition in this area, and the funds we raise are a primary source of funding for Exodus Homes. Many are aware of our successful capital campaign this year but those funds cannot be used for operating expenses. Honor Card sales will be a primary source of funds for the upcoming year” says the Rev. Susan Smith, Assistant Executive Director of Exodus Homes.
