Donations & Contributions to UCAC

Though the monument has been built, there are still important ways in which you can contribute to UCAC. You can purchase a brick to honor a mentor, friend, or family member, or just to show your support for the project. Proceeds from the purchase of bricks will be used to maintain the monument and to support the work of the Oral History Committee. Membership in UCAC committees is open to individuals and organizations willing to share information and learn about African-American Heritage.

UCAC is a nonprofit organization that receives contributions from individuals and organizations as well as from fund raising activities. The Dream of the UCAC is to pass on a rich multicultural history, display positive images, share the significant impact of people of color, foster high self-esteem for our children, and insure that youth in St. Mary's County understand that the past helps shape the future. We will continue to unite individuals and organizations to share information and learn about each other's heritage. Our ad hoc membership is free and open to the public. UCAC raises its funding through public and private donations and grants.

Details of the Buy-A-Brick Program for the St. Mary's County African American Monument Walkway
We are encouraging individuals and organizations wishing to provide financial support for UCAC to purchase bricks inscribed with their name(s) or the name of someone they wish to honor. These bricks will be placed on the walkway surrounding and leading to the monument and will serve as a permanent acknowledgment of their support and commitment to the importance of African-American contributions to St. Mary's County.

Walkway bricks honor our supporters, commemorate the contributions of others, and show the purchaser's dedication to our work.

Individuals and organizations wishing to provide financial support for the monument's maintenance and future improvements may purchase bricks for $50 each using the Buy-A-Brick Online Order Form or you may use the printer friendly order form to order via regular mail.
