On September 25, 2025, our dear brother Voddie Baucham was unexpectedly ushered into the presence of His precious Savior. He leaves behind him his wife, Bridget, nine children (seven of whom are still in their home), and three grandchildren.
Voddie touched millions of lives and countless people from around the world have asked how they may help. One immediate need is financial help for his family.
They aim to honor Voddie’s life and ministry by ensuring ongoing support for Bridget and their children. To achieve this, they need to raise money that will be managed through a suitable financial instrument, with oversight to provide for them in the years to come.
Money that was previously given when Voddie nearly died from heart failure in 2021 was placed in a medical trust fund. Despite what you may have heard from critics and those who tried to cast aspersions on Voddie’s integrity, that fund was continued for that purpose until his death. The remaining amount will be placed in this new fund to provide for the family’s financial needs.
The goal of this fund is $2 million.
This fundraiser waa well received by onlookers but some called out the amount.
Jason Whitlock points out about the fundraiser
He has 9 kids, seven of them still live at home with his homemaker wife. I understand your question. You might be naive about the expense of kids over the next 5 or so years. We’re not talking about an extravagant lifestyle. The elders who set up this GiveSendGo are rock solid, prudent, wise men with 20+ year connection to Voddie. This money isn’t going to be wasted, spent frivolously. It’s going to allow Voddie’s widow to live in dignity, finish discipling/homeschooling their kids. We’re investing in Voddie’s arrows (kids). We want Voddie’s arrows prepared to pick up their father’s cross. Invest $20 in Voddie Baucham Arrows. I guarantee you won’t regret it.
$2 million is a reasonable amount, akin to a life insurance policy.
