We are Unitarian Universalists, a movement that calls you to put more faith in yourself, your community and your beliefs. Simply put, we are a guided path towards a better you and a better world.   In releasing its Declaration of Conscience, the UUA recognized that in these extraordinary times we must be united in purpose to protect the values of our democracy and those vulnerable populations among us… There is a sense of urgency, and a need for vigilance. And there is clarity that we must act, not alone, but together. We need everyone to affirm our core values and declare our willingness to put them into action.

Little Actions can make a difference:

“Do you read the Buffalo NEWS? Is it delivered to your home? If so, here is a tip that can
save your carrier time and money, and help the environment. Your carrier can reuse those
orange bags over and over again each time you return them. I collect them and then lay
them out flat with the open ends together, then carefully fold them into a larger bag. The
first time I did this, I received a two-page thank you letter from my carrier.” ~Carol Wells

“Have old film x-rays hanging around the house? Would like to environmentally dispose of them? See the company listed below for help. Contact the company if you have a very large amount, but if only a few just  mail to the address below. They will extract the silver and them environmentally dispose of the remainder. They will also send you a certificate of disposition according to the HIPPA regulations and EPA guidelines. Great way to help!” ~Bunny Malone
