O. Eugene Pickett Award

The O. Eugene Pickett Award is given annually to the congregation that has made an outstanding contribution to the growth of Unitarian Universalism. Selection of a winner is based not only on honor society status, statistical growth in adult members and children in church school, but also on how the congregation has expressed commitment to membership growth through publicity, new member recruitment, outreach programs, and other resources that foster Unitarian Universalism.

The winner of this award receives $500. Nominations are made through the districts.

District nominations are due by March 1 each year and should be addressed to:

Tracey Robinson-Harris (trobinsonharris@uua.org)
Director, Congregational Services
Unitarian Universalist Association
25 Beacon Street
Boston, MA 02108

Questions may be directed to your District Staff or to the UUA Administrator, New Congregation and Growth Resources, Susanna Whitman at swhitman@uua.org, or 617-948-4270.
