Annual Life Member Giving
Retired colleagues like you, Life Members, are special. We’re asking you to help your association with a financial gift and/or ongoing pledge, helping us connect colleagues across all stages of ministry for decades to come — “calling forth courageous and transformative ministries empowered by love, committed to collective liberation … because we need one another.”
Each year, we ask Life Members for a gift or pledge to help us meet our year-end campaign goal of $15,000. No gift is too small or too large — we’ve gratefully received donations from $5 to $50,000.

If each of you gave $25, we’d easily reach our goal. We know some of you can’t give, and others can give more. A few ways to consider:
- $125 (half the lowest membership level), one time or as $11/month
- $250 (the lowest annual membership dues), or $21.83/month
- 1% of salary and housing — the same formula used for active-member dues (for example, $325/year on a $30,000 income)
Giving monthly or quarterly makes you a Sustaining UUMA Member, and we now offer monthly plans to make budgeting easier. We’d love to count on you as we plan for 2027 and beyond.
We’re deeply grateful for what Life Members have long given the UUMA, and we know financial circumstances vary widely — any amount is welcome. Thank you for all your past and ongoing gifts to the UUMA. Please click the DONATE button to make your gift count toward your Life Member Sustaining Gift.

UUMA Board Treasurer Rev. Carol Thomas Cissel said: “Embrace this powerful truth: you are loved and needed more than you may ever realize.”
We urge you to support the UUMA financially and stay as involved as you can. Please attend Retired Ministers Chapter meetings online, join the UU Solidarity Initiative, participate in learning programs we offer too. Your wisdom and curiosity are welcome at all our events — we need one another now more than ever.
