Each month we dedicate all of our non-pledge income to an organization doing the work that best embodies our Unitarian Universalist principles and values.
For the month of February 2023, we choose The Whitney Plantation Museum (near New Orleans in Wallace, Louisiana).
The Whitney Plantation Museum provides a different kind of plantation tour experience — one that tells the truth about the history and legacy of slavery in our nation.
The museum has suffered during the pandemic and in the most recent hurricanes
Here’s how to help preserve this vital link to a history we need to know as light and air are vital to healing.
