UUC's congregation continues its generosity through our monthly Social Justice Sundays, when we lift up one aspect of our church's social justie work and generally dedicate the morning's plate collection to that cause. 

In February we raised $2,900 for our church's hunger ministries - a cause sponsored by the social action group of our church's high school students. Food and hunger was the theme of the regional social action conference organized and hosted by our youth.

In March, in honor of Rev. Jon Luopa's 10th Anniversary Celebration, we picked a cause near and dear to his heart: community organizing. We raised $2,500 for the Sound Alliance, a community organizing alliance of religious and labor organizations of which UUC is a founding member.

In April, we made our traditional Easter plate dedication to the University Churches Emergency Fund, was formed in 1986 by a group of northeast Seattle churches – including UUC – to prevent and alleviate homelessness in North Seattle. Our congregation raiased $6,400 for this important organization that  provides information, referrals, and financial assistance with rent, move-in expenses, and utilities, as well as bus tickets, toiletries, sand snacks. 

Thank you to our generous congregation for their ongoing financial support of our church's important social justice ministries!
