UUCM's Basket Share Program, a project of our Social Concerns Committee, is one of many links to our broader community. One Sunday per month, we share our offering basket with another nonprofit organization that provides essential community services. Most recipients serve the Bay Area and are ones UUCM members and friends are directly involved with. This means that our collective Basket Share dollars make a big difference right here in our local community.
