The Giving First program donates 50% of the non-pledge offering each month to a charitable organization/ 501(c)(3) that we feel is consistent with Unitarian Universalist principles. Members of the congregation submit nominations to the Social Justice Coordinating Committee. Over the last decade First Parish has donated close to $210,000 through Giving First offerings.

All nominations must be submitted online. The Social Justice Coordinating Committee is accepting 2024 Giving First Nominations through December 22, 2023. Decisions will be made by the end of January, 2024. Please note that if you submitted a nomination earlier this year and you want it considered for this next year, you will have to re-submit it.
