As we have been saying in pledge drive weekly updates, no matter the size — the act of pledging makes UUCC stronger, collectively. Every single pledge — no matter the amount — matters and helps everyone feel ownership of this community we are building together.
This week we are sooooo close to reaching the $600,000 dollar mark, with $593,672 pledged as of today, putting us at 81% of our dollar goal. We are also so close to breaking through the 200 mark for total pledges made, with 196 pledges submitted as of today. If you plan to pledge and haven’t yet, can you pledge by the end of today?
UUCC’s Annual Meeting (when we will vote to adopt the upcoming fiscal year’s congregational budget) is in two weeks on Sunday, June 4, and we are still 19% away from our dollar goal and a sizable 30% away from our goal of 283 total pledges made. A gap like this will significantly impact UUCC’s programming and planning for the upcoming year. So, if you plan to pledge, time is nearly up — please submit your pledge today.
Without the people of UUCC investing what we can individually of our time, talent, and treasure to build this community collectively, we cannot exist as our congregation’s budget is dependent on pledges made by congregants. Your pledge today makes a difference.
