Once a month, FUUSE gives away the offering to a charitable organization serving our communities. The Outreach Committee evaluates and chooses the recipient charities.

The NH Community Bail Fund is our September recipient.

Since its founding in 2018, the NH Community Bail Fund has freed well over 1,000 people who were stuck in New Hampshire jails before being tried for any crime. Despite being innocent until proven guilty, they are unable to get out of jail because they can’t afford bail—sometimes as little as $50. While incarcerated, they may lose jobs, miss important medical appointments, and have their family relationships disrupted. The organization, which is fiscally sponsored by UU Action NH, operates as a revolving fund. Most bails return to us and can be used again to free more people. If you’re interested in learning more, or considering volunteering, please get in touch at nhbailfund@proton.me.

Please donate to this worthy cause!
All monetary donations on Sunday, October 18 will go directly to the Bail Fund. Or, you can donate online through the button below. Or make out a check to “NH Community Bail Fund” and either mail it to FUUSE at PO Box 627, Exeter NH 03833, or drop it in the offertory collection plate at any October FUUSE Sunday Service.
