Secular Humanists of Western Lake Erie (SHoWLE) values people, emphasizes reason, and focuses on this world. We are a democratic, membership run organization with the purpose of providing a supportive local community for humanists and other nontheists, while promoting ethical and reasonable secular world views through education, community service, outreach, activism, and social events.

We envision a Northwest Ohio and Southeast Michigan where secular people are respected and integrated in broader society, live values of reason and compassion, and enjoy a friendly humanist community.
