Thanks to the generosity of past members, Harbor Unitarian Universalist Congregation has the opportunity each year to award grants from our endowment fund to support special projects aligned with our mission. The Endowment Committee is accepting grant applications from October 1st to December 1st. In 2025, HUUC awarded a total of around $6,500 in grants, which ranged from social action projects to educational grants and updates to the social hall.

Our mission is to be “… a safe haven inspiring people to seek their own spiritual truths through worship and learning in community as we build a better world together.” Applications to our fund that further that mission are welcomed.

The HUUC Endowment Fund is governed by the Harbor UU Endowment Fund Plan of Operation as adopted in May of 2004, with revisions approved by the vote of the congregation in May 2014, May 2016, and May 2019.  The HUUC Endowment Fund Plan of Operation is available here: Harbor Unitarian Universalist Congregation Endowment Fund Plan of Operation (PDF).

We offer to fund a number of projects each year, totaling $5,000 or more.
