Churches can perfectly function without tithing. There are plenty of examples in other organizations.

Why does the UPCI or other organizations need to stop doing what they’ve been doing? It seems like you’re trying to change an organization, how about trying to influence an individual.
The UPCI, WPF, AMF, etc… are man made organizations, they’re structured like the pyramid. What else do you expect from a man made organization? Do we expect something greater? Why, because they believe in
Acts 2:38, One God so on and so forth.
We can complain about the bylaws of an organization, however do not become a part of it. You’re not saved because of a membership, you’re saved by his Spirit.
I used those examples as a way to say, man changes, man says one thing today and something different tomorrow. Maybe one day the UPCI changes its stance on giving. You may not believe in tithing today, but maybe someday you will. Time will tell….
