Southern Unitarian Association : Reserves policy

SUA RESERVES POLICY

January 2019

1. The SUA holds reserves as a matter of prudence and in order to maintain the level of benefits for charitable purposes, charitable institutions, and/or charitable entities as shall be determined by the Trustees.

2. All funds are received as unrestricted. Unrestricted funds are needed:

a. to provide funds which can be designated to specific projects to enable these to be undertaken at short notice;

b. to cover administration support costs.

3. The Trustees from time to time designate funds for future grants.

Gabor Kereki said this on religion the Unitarian way:

Religion ought to provide us with strength, inspiration, spiritual power, and invigorating joy - it ought to reach to the depths of the human spirit where the deepest and most meaningful experiences of life take place.

No Unitarian is called upon to subscribe to any particular belief or to submit to the dominance of a particular doctrine. We need the satisfying and exhilarating experience of worship, we need inspiration for reverence; we need stimulus for duty; we need incentive for love, goodness and beauty; we need a happy spiritual conception of the universe.

One of our main desires is to share our religion with others. In any realm, be it science, art or religion, nobody commends anything to anybody unless first enjoying it, being strengthened and enriched by it.
