UUAM (formerly known as UFETA, which remains the official
name for business purposes) often runs ads in UU World,
and we hope to run more ads, ads with varied messages that will challenge all Unitarian
Universalists to rethink how animals are treated in our society (click here for samples.).
Your donation will be used for this purpose only.
"We acknowledge and affirm the kinship and interdependence of all beings, and
adopt an ethic of interspecies compassion as an integral component of liberal
religion." - UUAM
