Section: Pledges & Annual Giving (Members Only)

Understanding Annual UUCF Pledges

Annual pledges provide the financial foundation for UUCF each fiscal year. Your pledge tells UUCF how much you plan to give between July 1 and June 30, helping leadership create a responsible and mission-driven budget.

Financial Pledge (Treasure)

You may fulfill your financial pledge in two ways.

1. Automatic Gifts (Autopay)

  • Choose weekly or monthly recurring gifts
  • Payments are securely processed through Stripe
  • You can update or stop automatic giving at any time
  • You will always see your next scheduled payment amount and the next payment date

2. In-Person (Cash, Check, Zelle)

In-person gifts may be made at any time during the year by cash, check, or Zelle. These gifts are entered into the system and count toward fulfilling your annual pledge.

Time & Talent Pledge

Along with your financial commitment, Members are invited to share their gifts and skills through a Time & Talent pledge. Common categories include:

  • Hospitality
  • Communications
  • Music
  • Building & Grounds
  • Social Justice
  • Administration & Leadership
  • Children & Youth

Both elements—Treasure and Time & Talent—help sustain and strengthen our UUCF community.
