Pledge a Gift
Just the Basics about Funding UUBN’s Ministry in 2024
Pledges make it possible for us to plan soundly and carefully, rather than guessing how much we can invest.
Giving matters—as we share the costs of great staff, religious education materials, and our beautiful building. The budget needs all of us to share in financially supporting the work we love!
- Social Justice Outreach
- Celebration of Life
- Ministry Staff
- Religious education for all ages
- Environmentally conscious building
- Personal and religious development
- Promoting our faith
This is what your regular pledges empower our caring community at UUBN to accomplish!
Oct 31 – The best deadline for your pledges. Letting us know your plans by this deadline makes sound budgeting happen.
