Sanctuary for Hope Stewardship Campaign Update

Pledges requested by November 1st

The 2026 Sanctuary for Hope stewardship campaign is underway. Missed the October 5 service where we discussed this year’s drive? You can watch it here. 

A pledge is your best guess of how much you can contribute to UUAA in 2026. If you are newer to our community, and you’ve been making donations in the weekly offertory, these are deeply appreciated and helpful. However, we build the annual budget based on pledged commitments, which provide most of our income. We encourage all regular donors to convert their routine donations to pledged giving so we can better plan for the coming year. A pledge is not a legally binding commitment. If necessary, your pledge can be changed at any time. If you are new to the concept of pledging, please review this FAQ document. 

We hope to have all pledges in by November 1. This helps us get to work on the budget right away, giving us sufficient time to carefully plan for UUAA’s operations in 2026. To encourage early pledging and for a bit of fun, we are raffling off four gift baskets during the campaign. Drawings will be held on October 13, 20, 27, and November 2. If you get your pledge in now, you still have two chances to win! Click here to make your 2026 pledge today
