In keeping with our belief that generosity should be a way of life, each month UUCDC shares its gifts with a worthy community organization.  

Our Share the Plate (STP) program donates the plate collection on the second Sunday of the month and any funds sent via text to groups such as the Domestic Abuse Project of Delaware County, whose mission is to prevent domestic violence and empower victims towards self-sufficiency, and the Lenape Tribe of Delaware, which advocates for the cultural identity and civil and human rights of local indigenous people. 

Donate during Sunday services or any time by texting $AMOUNT STP to 610-756-8883; replace AMOUNT with the amount you wish to donate, such as $50 STP. 

For more information, contact the social justice coordinator. 

Your generosity is always appreciated.
