The SC UU Justice Alliance has gotten off to a fantastic start! Jean and Pippin and the entire Board are blown away by the generosity and justice engagement of SC UUs.
Now, it's time to meet to CELEBRATE and plan what's next for the Alliance. You'll have an opportunity to connect with UUs, share ideas, and find ways to get involved. As always, we want to learn from you about all your social justice hopes and needs.
We eagerly invite you to join us on Zoom for the next SC Social Justice Meetup on Monday, May 9, 2022 from 7 to 9 PM ET via Zoom.

Hooray for UUr Generosity and Vision!
Thanks to your generosity and the visionary giving across the state, we have already reached our $5,000 matching grant goal, with 20 days to go! We are so deeply grateful for the support and good stewardship of South Carolina UUs, and to the UU Funding Program for the matching gift and investment in South Carolina. Way to go everyone!
We are going to keep the matching grant opportunity open for the remainder of the fundraising period, as we are actively looking for another matching giver to inspire us all! The campaign page is here if you want to contribute to our ongoing campaign.
We are so excited for what we can do together to create more justice in South Carolina!

Visits to Congregations in 2022
We got the year started right with a service and gathering at the amazing UU Church of Spartanburg on January 2. Next we went to the UU Congregation of Columbia, Clayton Memorial UU Church, Greenville UU Fellowship, the Unitarian Church in Charleston, UU Fellowship of Clemson, and the Aiken UU Church. We may be coming to a congregation near you soon, too. Here is the schedule:
Apr 10: UU Fellowship of Beaufort
Jul 17: UU Congregation of the Lowcountry
We hope to join you in-person or on-line during one of these visits as we build ways to act together for justice in South Carolina!.
