Friends of the Unitarian Universalist Association Fund
Friends of the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) is the fund for individuals who have chosen to become a part of our mission; to provide needed services to over 1,040 Unitarian Universalist UU) congregations, communities and societies across the country. The Friends program provides UUs with the opportunity to have a significant impact on the growth of the Unitarian Universalist movement, the "free and responsible search for truth and meaning". The Friends program provides a crucial portion of all Association funding, dollars that allow us to provide a number of important services that no one congregation could provide for itself.
- Fund training and continuing education programs for ministers and religious educators.
- Bring the UU philosophy to a variety of social issues through social justice programs like the Journey Toward Wholeness, the UUA’s anti-racism program.
- Develop lifetime religious education curricula for children, young people and adults such as OWL (Our Whole Lives); a program of sexuality education for the entire lifespan.
A Growing Community
Last year, 2500 individuals became new members of the Friends of the UUA. In doing so, they became part of the dynamic growth we have seen as more and more people turn to an alternative vision, a more liberal view of a spiritual and ethical life. This vision must be nurtured and supported as the UU movement reaches out to a steadily increasing population. It is the support of committed individuals across the country that make this possible.
