Kick-off Sunday
February 1 (10AM only!)
This is the day we begin our General Fundraising Campaign to support the Annual Operating Budget and the exciting Building Expansion Project we’ve been visioning and planning over the past years.
Kick-off Sunday will be a fun event for the whole family. There’ll be a short service, then rousing music, information, food, activities for the children, and we’ll reveal with fanfare the amount of money that’s already been raised during the quiet phase of fundraising over the last months.
There’ll be break-out rooms where you can get your questions answered about the building, progress towards resolving our water issue, and details of how to donate to the Campaign.
Combining the Annual Operating Fund and a Capital Fund is a first for UUCB, but our UUA consultant, Kay Crider, assures us that this is a successful trend for UU churches across the U.S. and Canada, and she strongly recommended that we follow suit.
We’re also trying something new for us based on Kay’s advice. We‘ll be visiting every member and active friend to talk about the annual fund and Building Expansion project to ask for your support. We’ve been doing these visits in the early stages of the Campaign, and have found it to be a great and enjoyable community builder!
Hope to see you on Kick-off Sunday. These are exciting times for UUCB and you’re an important part of it all!
