Split-the-Plate Partner Program
UUCT provides social action assistance to a number of local not-for-profit social service organizations through our Split-the-Plate Partners program. Each month, our UUCT congregation donates one-half of the non-pledge and not otherwise designated proceeds from our Sunday morning offerings to a different organization that would not otherwise be eligible for funding through mainstream, traditional sources. The current organizations receiving our donations are as follows:
- West Alabama Food Bank
- Friends of Hurricane Creek
- East Tuscaloosa Community Soup Bowl
- Druid City Pride
- Hospice of West Alabama
- Turning Point
- Schoolyard Roots
- Caring Days
- Tuscaloosa Community Soup Bowl
- Five Horizons Health Services
- Move to Amend – Tuscaloosa
- Alabama SPCA
UUCT members also donate non-perishable food to the local food pantry at Grace Presbyterian Church throughout the year. Donated books are collected in October for Books to Prisons.
