Our newest funding program supports aspirants/candidates to the UU ministry who identify as women of color, Latina, or Hispanic. It was founded to honor the memory of the late Rev. Marjorie Bowens-Wheatley, a past UUWF board member and a member of the first Equity and Justice Grants Panel. This year marks the program's first funding cycle, and four recipients received grants of $1,500 each:
Natalie Maxwell Fenimore, Gaithersburg, MD Dr. Denise E. Hall, Greeley, CO Kathleen McGregor, Pasadena, CA Jodi Tharan, El Cerrito, CA Application guidelines for this program are currently under review and will be announced, along with the deadline for 2010 applications, later this year.

Clyde Grubbs, for donating funds given in Marjorie's memory for distribution through this program.
