Share the Plate Partnerships
Sharing Donations with our Community Partners
What is Share the Plate?
UUCY shares half of all our donation plates with a local community organization, what we call Share the Plate (STP). Our Share the Plate partners are identified through input from the Congregation and decided upon by the UUCY Social Justice Committee. We use the STP to honor our commitment to service to our local community through these generous donations to local partners.
