Why We Give

Perhaps it boils down to our desire to be part of something greater than ourselves, to make a positive difference in the world.

At Second Unitarian Church our mission is to be authentic, compassionate, and transformative in our lives, in our faith, and in the world. This community encourages us to live with integrity, to nurture one another, and to change the world through acts of love and justice.

Supporting Second Unitarian helps us focus beyond our personal boundaries to become part of a greater good. By deepening our generosity through gifts of time, talent and treasure, we experience greater joy and meaning in our lives.

The Many Forms of Generosity at 2U

Opportunities to give at Second Unitarian take on several different forms of generosity.

Share Your Time and Talent

We ask that you share your time and talent. Brew a pot of coffee for Sunday morning fellowship. Spruce up the church during spring cleaning. Provide a meal to a family in need. Or sing with the Dulcet Singers during Sunday morning worship. More

Share the Plate

One way we serve our community is to share half our offering each Sunday with a social justice agency. More

Make an Annual Financial Pledge

Each year during our spring pledge drive, we ask our members to make a financial pledge. Each member household determines the amount they wish to commit. They then fulfill their pledge throughout the upcoming church year. More

Arrange Planned Giving

You can leave a lasting legacy by including a gift to Second Unitarian as part of your will or estate planning. Your planned gift may be directed to Second Unitarian in general, or you may direct it toward our Endowment Fund. More
