"It's not how much we give but how much love we put into giving."
– Mother Teresa
2026-2027 Annual Giving Campaign
When we give what we can, in small ways and grand,
we grow all the goodness that lives in this land.
What is a Pledge Drive?
Plans for the upcoming congregational year always begin with an Annual Giving Campaign. Pledges are collected that provide the basis for the next year’s operating budget. The UUFH congregational year runs from July 1 to June 30. On Sunday, March 1, 2026, a special Sunday Service kicks off the Pledge Drive. All Members are expected to make a pledge during the month of March 2026 for the following Fellowship year.
Members make “pledges” or promises to donate during the next year at levels that are appropriate for each individual member. Some contribute larger percentages of their smaller incomes, and others contribute donations of larger amounts that offset those of Members less able. Members' generosity makes UUFH a religious home and a respite for many.
At UUFH, we trust that if all of us do what is right for each of us, UUFH (and our families, our communities, and the world), will benefit.
How to decide what to pledge:
Your generosity demonstrates your individual commitment.
Together, all Fellowshippers demonstrate the strength of our faith community.
Annually, it costs the Fellowship approximately $1,400 for each adult member, assuming that building rental and fundraiser income is as projected.
Please plan to contribute an amount that is right for you and your own personal circumstances. Please consider the importance of Unitarian Universalism in your life as you decide upon a level of generosity that is right for you.
Adjustments due to changes in financial status may be made at any time. Waivers and other assistance is available by contacting Rev. Israel Buffardi (minister@uufh.org or 631-427-9547).
Know that all pledges are gratefully received.
Thank you for your commitment to your religious home.
