Quakers believe that our lives stand in testament to our faith.
We are active in a wide variety of local, national and international causes:
-
-
-
Adopting sustainable and environmentally-sound practices, such as reducing vehicle usage and avoiding plastic at home and in the Meeting House.
-
Participating in stand-out events for peace and writing letters and postcards on social-justice and environmental topics.
Our pie sale to benefit local food pantries is held every year on Labor Day weekend.
-
Gathering donations and baking pies to raise money for Cape Cod food pantries.
-
Volunteering and participating in fundraisers for Habitat for Humanity’s housing program on Cape Cod.
-
Working to build a right relationship with the Wampanoag community through educational walks highlighting the history of Yarmouth’s Indigenous lands and by promoting the Wampanoag Language Reclamation Project.
-
Supporting other Quaker groups who aid refugees around the world, including the American Friends Service Committee and Quakers in Bialystok, Poland who provide food and medical supplies to Ukrainian refugees in their city.
