1.  The member or group emails our Admin Ruth to request a Community Event Request Google Form be emailed to them and returned to her,
  2.  Weekly on Tuesdays, members of the Sharex Team review all the forms received.
  3.  Someone from Sharex contacts the member or group (within a week or two depending on volume of requests) to go over the details of the request.
  4. Once the details are understood, the calendar will be checked for conflicts, and a decision will be made whether UUFBR can accommodate the request.
    • If the event is sponsored or organized by a UUFBR member, the member contacts Program Planning (PP) to get an Event Form.
    • The sponsoring member fills out the Form and emails it to gro.rbfuu@gninnalpmargorp to add the proposal to. the agenda at the next monthly PP meeting.
    • The PP Team evaluates whether the event is for fundraising, outreach, spiritual growth or other purposes aligned with our mission and vision; discusses possible conflicts and collaborations; coordinates with the IT Team; and explores how to evaluate the success of the event.

5)       If the event can be held at UUFBR, the date will be reserved, a contract will be sent for signature, and the member or group pays deposits, gets insurance and fulfills other contract requirements.

    • For member-sponsored events, once the event takes place, the sponsoring or producing member submits a written report and an oral summary of the event and its success to PP so we can learn from each other and keep track of events.

Be aware:

  • The written request form is NOT a guarantee that the event or project can be done.
  • Please be patient with Sharex – please wait at least a week before calling to follow up on the Request Form. Volunteers and staff are working hard on many projects!
  • Bring your proposal to Program Planning at least three months before the planned even.
  • Make sure at least three (and preferably more) UUFBR members are involved to ensure sufficient coverage in case of unanticipated absences.
