Donate to the Peoples Water Board for Water for Detroit

3/24/2020

 
While Governor Whitmer has declared a moratorium on water shutoffs in Detroit and ordered the City to restore water for those residents. unfortunately, the City is moving very slowly. As of March 18, the City has restored water to only 700 households compared to an estimated 9,500 households without water, water so needed to maintain healthy living.

The Michigan UU Social Justice Network (MUUSJN) is encouraging people to donate to the Peoples Water Board (PWB) to help them buy water to distribute to these high-risk low-income people in Detroit. Make your check out to the Eastern Michigan Environmental Action Council (PWB's fiscal agent), write “People's Water Board Water” in the memo line, and send it to Eastern Michigan Environmental Action Council, First Unitarian Universalist Church of Detroit, 4605 Cass Avenue, Detroit, MI 48201.

​Two MUUSJN Job Opportunities

3/24/2020

 
MUUSJN has two part time job opportunities: a Northern Michigan Justice Organizer ($600/month) and a LGBTQ Justice Organizer ($600/month), and the two positions could be combined. Both positions are ones what can be fulfilled by working at home, using phone and email communications for maximum safety during our current crisis. Click the links above for job descriptions. If you are interested or have questions, call Randy Block, MUUSJN Director, at 248-224-5572 by the end of March.

Interested in Voting in the March 10 Presidential Primary?

3/5/2020

 
Because of the changes in Michigan voting laws approved in Proposal 3 in 2018, you can still register to vote and/or vote via an absentee ballot in the March 10 Presidential Primary right up through Election Day. For complete information to help you do so, go to the Michigan Voter Information Center website. We also have hard copy forms available in the foyer of the Fellowship, although you will still have to take them in person to your local city or township clerk, along with proof of residency. 
 
Should you have questions or need help, please feel free to contact David Wagstaff, Jim Moreno, Melissa Nix, or Norma Bailey. As well, if you will need transportation to the polling precincts, please feel free to contact one of us.
 
A great source of information about the candidates and the issues on your ballot is vote411.org, a non-partisan website sponsored by the League of Women Voters Education Fund.
