The Juneau Unitarian Universalist Fellowship (JUUF) is asking the LGBT community for help.
The JUUF is working to purchase the historic church building on the corner of 5th and Main Street in downtown Juneau, the second oldest church in the city. The financing plan includes raising at least $125,000 from members and friends.
"JUUF openly welcomes lesbian, gay, and transgender people and honors our contributions to the community and to society," reads the message from SEAGLA, the Southeast Alaska Gay and Lesbian Alliance.
SEAGLA members support the Fellowship for several reasons:
- JUUF has been an active voice for equal rights for the LGBT community of Juneau.
- It has been financially supportive of both PFLAG and the Pride Chorus.
- It is a "Red Ribbon Congregation" working toward a world without AIDS.
- JUUF members have marched in the 4th of July parade with a banner that says "Unitarian Universalists are for Equal Rights for Gays."
How can you help? New donations received before February 1 will be matched more than double their value.
Please send a check to JUUF - Capital Campaign, PO Box 20064, Juneau, AK 99802. Even the smallest contributions at this time will help. Thank you.
