How much should I give?
The UUA encourages Members to give 5% of their annual income to the church. If you are retired or if you intentionally minimize your income to control taxes, you might consider giving 1% of your savings/investments.

How much to give is a personal decision that is affected by your circumstances, your connection to the church and how you think about money. Here is an income and investments chart to help you with these options.

For more information or to speak confidentially about your giving, contact Roberta Druif, our Director of Finance and Operations, at 941-371-4974, ext 5 or via email at directoruucs@gmail.com. She is also in her office most Sundays.
