Once each month, All Souls donates the full amount of our non-pledge collection plate to a worthy cause. The purpose of Share the Plate is to encourage congregation engagement with, and to contribute financially to, local, national, or international organizations that share Unitarian Universalist values and actively respond to community needs and issues. Ideally, congregation members are involved, or can become involved, with these causes. In general, the Share the Plate initiative is not intended to duplicate already established contributions from All Souls or Heart and Soul.
Congregants are invited to suggest a Share the Plate organization by filling out the Request form. All submissions will be considered by the Share the Plate Committee. The committee will initially consider recommendations for the months of November and December 2023 and January 2024. Please note the nominated group should have an Internal Revenue Code § 501(c)(3) status. The deadline for initial submission is Friday, March 15, 2024.
The Share the Plate Committee is comprised of the following All Souls Congregants:
