Generosity Sunday: Recovery Institute

•

Periodically, UU Community Church holds special “Generosity Sunday” collections to support organizations that promote justice, equity, and inclusion in our community. During the month of April, we will be collecting donations for the Recovery Institute of Southwest Michigan.

DONATE TO THE RECOVERY INSTITUTE NOW

While offering a wide range of classes, groups, individual coaching, and social services support for people who are experiencing substance use or mental health diagnoses, the Recovery Institute is also a place to just come and hang out. But, as the only peer-run, peer-directed recovery center in the county, it’s also so much more. Partnering with more than 20 agencies in the community, the Recovery Institute is helping create a culture of peer-directed recovery and de-stigmatization of substance use and mental health issues throughout the county. The Institute’s reach is wide, but its mission is simple: instilling hope and providing a path to self-management and wellness for those seeking recovery.

There are several ways to give to our special collection for the Recovery Institute

  • Place a check made out to UUCC with Generosity Sunday the memo in the offer ing basket anytime in April. You can also mail your check to our building.
  • If you prefer to use a debit or credit card, give online using the church website or the Vanco app on your phone. Be sure to choose Generosity Sunday in the menu.
  • If you prefer to give cash, we will be donating all cash and loose change in the offering plate on April 13 to the Recovery Institute.

Supporting our Generosity Sunday recipients is a way to live our UU values in the world! If it is yours to do, we invite you to give generously to our special collection for the Recovery Institute. Imagine the impact if just 10 UUCC members each contributed $100—together, we could make a real difference in people’s lives! Every donation, no matter the size, helps bring hope and support to those in need. Please also help spread the word—anyone can contribute and be part of this meaningful effort.

Let’s come together to create lasting change!
