Your generous gift for the Spring 2026 Chalice Lighter call will help our Central East Region UU congregations to thrive in the. Your contributions are the tangible expression of love and community, the only thing that drives out hate. We need them more than ever.
Because of your gifts, we are able to make a $40,000 grant to the UU Congregation of York, 178 member congregation in York, Pennsylvania, to help fund a major capital project that will make their congregation’s buildings more energy efficient, comfortable and safe. The project includes replacing the HVAC system in the Sanctuary building and “Carriage House” as well as roofing and electrical work, and will also address insulation, fire alarm systems and a new heat pump water heater.
Your donations provide the funds to make grants to UU congregations and groups of congregations throughout our region, helping them to build strong, resilient, and justice-loving communities. Please give by April 15 to help us reach our goal.
Thank you on behalf of our congregations from your Chalice Lighter Program Committee and staff.
