To understand how selections are made, open the Assessment Tool that guides the decisions of the committee.

 How to Make a  Donation
There are several  ways to make a Share the Plate donation.  If you are at the service, you can make a donation using either cash or check and placing it in the basket when it is passed during the service.  If you are using a check, please make it payable to C3HUU with the Share the Plate recipient on the memo line.  Another option is to take a picture of the QR code in the order of service.  This will easily guide you through the process of making a one-time donation on behalf of the beneficiary.

You can also send a check made payable to C3HUU. Mail the check to Harrison Gray at 106 Purefoy Road, Chapel Hill, NC 27514.  Whenever you use a check for STP,  be sure to write the name of the cause in the memo line. 

Or donate now by Clicking Here.  Scroll down to "Make a Donation" and click on "Donate Now".  Now go down to the option that says "Share the Plate". You will find boxes in which you can enter the amount, name of the cause, and the date.  Then scroll down to the bottom of the page and hit “Continue.”  You will be taken to a page where you can enter your payment information. 

Thank you for your generosity.
