PBUUC has had a Social Action Committee (SAC) for most of its congregational history. SAC leads, coordinates, and encourages the efforts of the Paint Branch community to bring about a more just society and meet the needs of disadvantaged people locally, nationally, and globally.

Members of the Social Action Committee work individually and as small groups with a variety of community organizations on a variety of issues, including homelessness, immigration, and providing meals.

The Social Action Committee also coordinates the monthly Special Collection,taken during the regular offertory at a Sunday service, to provide financial support to local, national, and international non-profit organizations suggested by members of the congregation.

The Social Action Committee also serves as liaison between PBUUC and UU organizations serving the wider community, such as the UUs for Social Justice (UUSJ), the UU Legislative Ministry of Maryland (UULM-MD), and the UU United Nations Office (UU-UNO).

If you are passionate about making the world better for everyone, consider joining our Social Action efforts. Every little bit of help brings us a step closer to our goal of peace and justice for all. For more information, send an email to SAC@pbuuc.org.
