Annual Program Fund
The Annual Program Fund
Since 1961, the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) has focused its resources on helping congregations grow and thrive, and giving voice to our Unitarian Universalist (UU) principles and values.
Each congregation that joins with the UUA invests in the growth and advancement of Unitarian Universalism with each contribution it makes to the Annual Program Fund (APF). As covenantal partners, all member congregations are expected to contribute annually to the APF in support of the UUA.
Over the past five decades, the UUA has made great progress in developing programs, services and resources benefiting congregations and our UU faith as a whole, including:
- Congregational Life
- Ministry and Professional Leadership
- Congregational Stewardship Services
- Advocacy and Witness for Social Justice
- Lifespan Faith Development
- Youth and Young Adult Ministries
And all the while, we have been Standing on the Side of Love as allies and advocates for justice and human rights!
Together, we can do and be more than any one congregation can do and be on its own. The challenges and needs of the world are many. We must unite our energies, commitment, and financial resources to fulfill the dreams that no single person or congregation could achieve alone.
For more information on how your congregation's gifts continue to advance Unitarian Universalism throughout the world, please download the Annual Program Fund's brochure "We Build This Community Together (PDF, 8 pages): Recognizing the Congregational Contributions to the UUA Annual Program Fund."
