Shared Plate: South Baltimore Community Land Trust

Every Sunday, Eliot Chapel shares half of the offertory with an organization in the community whose work reflects our shared values. This is one way that we care for our community and our neighbors. We are very pleased that our recipient today is the South Baltimore Community Land Trust, the collection recipient from 2025 UUA General Assembly.


SBCLT believes that people directly impacted by environmental, economic, and racial injustice must be in the lead to create development that regenerates our communities and our planet. Building on this belief, they take land out of the extractive speculative sector and put it into the hands of their community to advance a proactive vision for development without displacement and zero waste.
