It's Time to UU the Vote in North Carolina!

Dear Friend,

We hope that you and your loved ones are safe and healthy during this pandemic. In this moment, we are certainly called to realize the truth of our interconnection, but also the powerful love that lives within each of us. A powerful love that can heal this world.

Yes, we are hurting. But we have love on our side and it's time to UU the Vote in North Carolina!

UUA Provides $12,500 in Funding to UU the Vote in NC

We're excited to share the news that the UUA has made a $12,500 commitment to support our state's UU the Vote work this year! This money will help Forward Together to fund additional staffing hours, direct actions and our community partnerships.

What does it mean to practice our UU principles during a pandemic? What are we doing to guarantee free and fair elections in states targeted by voter suppression?

Music is powerful. It's there for us when we need strength and inspiration to keep going and when we need rest and discernment to determine our next move.

Join the nationwide “How We Thrive” virtual choir, by adding your voice to the powerful song “We Shall be Known” by MaMuse.

May love be our guide,
