Alternative Gift Faire for our Partner Church in Ulay
The Alternative Gift Faire supports UUSM’s Partner Church in Ulay on Negros Island in the Philippines.
A gift given in the name of a friend or relative, as an alternative to traditional holiday and other gift purchases, will send a message of love around the world. Our partner UU congregation in Ulay needs our financial support to fight hunger, educate their children, and empower their community to create and manage sustainable economic development.
Thank you for your generosity! Donations in any amount are gratefully received. Your donation has a positive impact on the lives of Ulay families.
