AU Wins “Affiliate of the Year” Award at American Atheists 2022 Convention
At American Atheists 2022 National Convention in Atlanta Georgia the award for “Affiliate of the Year” was presented to Atheists United for its extraordinary organizing efforts and community advocacy.
In front of a crowd of almost 600 people, they began listing some of Atheists United’s many achievements over the past year…
Hosting monthly food distributions that give away over 3,000lbs of food and feed hundreds of LA families
Attracting national media attention through our Atheist Street Pirates program
Co-organizing virtual lobby days to organize atheists around abortion access, contraceptives access, and evidence-based education policy
Launching a new addiction recovery program
Launching a new secular youth group for teens
Growing our membership, volunteers, AND donors numbers during a pandemic (when most groups across the country shrunk)
Executive Director, Evan Clark, and Board President, Christine Jones, accepted the award in person on behalf of the organization.
“This honor belongs to the hundreds of dedicated volunteers that have given their blood, sweat, and tears to bringing Atheists United back from the dead these past 3 years. It feels good to have all that hard work recognized.”
Atheists United is a donor-funded community nonprofit that depends on the generosity of its members to exist.
With each new award, news story, and program launch the organization's goals only grow larger.
Help us continue to grow into the most active and recognizable atheist community in America.
