DEAR UUSC MEMBERS AND SUPPORTERS, In this 80th year of UUSC’s work in the world, we learned things we didn’t realize we needed to know, faced challenges we weren’t expecting, and responded to the intersecting impacts of inequity that create the current crises of displacement and criminalization. Always rooted in partnership, we strengthened our resolve to uproot causes of oppression and foster equitable alternatives. MARY KATHERINE MORN The COVID-19 crisis has compelled many to awaken to President and CEO something that Black, Latinx, and Indigenous communities have always known: our dominant systems have been designed to protect the advantage of the few at the expense of the many. We have a moral obligation to do what we can to transform these systems. We continue to affirm the clear connection between long- term grassroots organizing and change that builds enduring equity. Grounded in our deep belief in the dignity and power of all people, UUSC’s mission is to advance human rights and dismantle systems of oppression. Our partners in the U.S. and around the world are creating solutions for their own NED WIGHT communities that are producing lasting change. Board Chair Here are just a few of the stories from UUSC partners who are leading the way to a more just and humane world — removing barriers to migration, overcoming climate challenges through self-determination, promoting long-term crisis recovery grounded in equity. To learn more and dig deeper, please visit our website at uusc.org and catch up on our blogs and action updates. To all of you who have invested your time, energy, money, and heart to make this work possible, thank you. Together, we can — and will — continue to change the world.

CRISIS RESPONSE LONG-TE RM RECOVERY GRO U N DE D I N E Q UI T Y As climate change continues to cause an increasing number of destructive storms, the demand on humanitarian assistance is intensifying. No matter the type of crisis, those who were already experiencing injustice, oppression, or human rights issues have the most limited access to aid in the wake of any disaster. Your steadfast generosity ensures UUSC and our partners can also buoy those who must navigate the compounding effects of human-caused disasters and political crises. B UR M A : RESPONDING TO THE ROHINGYA GENOCIDE After decades of brutal ethnic and religious persecution, hundreds of thousands of Rohingya Muslims were forced to flee their homeland and seek asylum throughout Asia and the Pacific region when violence toward them intensified in 2017.

UNWAVERING COMMITMENT THANK YOU TO THE UNITARIAN UNIVERSALIST CONGREGATION AT SHELTER ROCK!

UUSC has always been able to count on our friends at UUCSR for their extraordinary commitment to our mission in ways large and small. We especially want to recognize how UUCSR models steadfastness, compassion, and generosity by providing a dollar-for-dollar match for our members each year — multiplying the impact we make together.
