Social Action at SVUUS
Deeds, not creeds.
- SVUUS participates in area interfaith organizations like FACE Hunger & Homelessness, Crossroads Urban Center and Food Pantry, the Salt Lake Interfaith Roundtable, the Utah PRIDE Center, and Family Promise.
- We take 100% of our electricity from our rooftop solar panels.
- We prepare 2-3 meals a month for at-risk teens.
- We work at the Utah Food Bank.
- We offer family-friendly service projects that are multi-generational.
- The Social Action Council leads occasional worship services around themes of Caring for the Unhoused and Honoring the Earth.
Each week, we share our Sunday Collection with a worthy nonprofit organization that aligns with our UU Principles. We rotate among local, state national and global organizations such as these:
| Black Lives Matter Utah | Advocating for police accountability and transparency |
| Breathe Utah | Improving our air through education and policy |
| Navajo & Hopi Families COVID-19 Relief Fund | Direct assistance to elders and the vulnerable |
| Utah Food Bank | Fighting hunger statewide |
Our building makes its own energy.
