All members and friends of the church are welcome to nominate organizations to receive the shared offering in 2021. We are looking for organizations in alignment with our UU values. They can be local, state, national, or international. Please note that this should be an organization that you know about and support, but not one that you personally run or that employs you.

Organizations that received the shared offering in 2020 cannot receive it again in 2021. Those organizations are:
- Champaign County Bailout Coalition
- Salt and Light Ministries
- Randolph St. Community Gardens
- Rape Advocacy Counseling and Education Services
- Sistering CU
- Uniting Pride Center
- Wesley Food Pantry
- Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense

The deadline for submitting a nomination is November 15. On Sunday, November 22 at 2 p.m. we will have a Zoom meeting to select the winning organizations. There will be brief presentations by the nominators and all interested members and friends are invited to attend and vote!
