Every Sunday, UUCM donates the entire open offering to a social justice cause, with different organizations chosen each month. Since we began this practice in 2010, UUCM has raised and dispersed more than $150,000 to 60+ organizations. The Social Justice Ministry and minister choose the recipients of these funds with input from the congregation. If you'd like to submit a suggestion for future social generosity recipients, please fill out this online form.
You can donate online here, drop off a check in person in our secure drop box outside the office or mail a contribution to UUCM at 2030 Wayzata Blvd E, Wayzata MN 55391. Please make checks out to "UUCM" and write "Social Generosity" in the memo line.
