Giving Opportunities

Mission and Service

By giving to Mission and Service, the people of the United Church join together to accomplish three goals: to transform and save lives, to inspire meaning and purpose, and to build a better world.

Your gifts to Mission and Service help people in need in Canada and around the world by providing access to food, housing, and employment support. Your generosity helps people develop new skills and access life-changing medical treatment and counselling. Your gifts help people live meaningfully and purposefully by supporting education opportunities, communities of faith, retreat centres, and more.

Learn more about where the money goes, who it helps, and why it matters in the resources at the bottom of this page. See Ways to Give for donation opportunities.

Emergency Response

When the worst disasters threaten the most vulnerable, you can help. Through special emergency response appeals, your gifts make an immediate life-saving difference. With the guidance of our partners on the ground, we are able to respond quickly to crises around the world, helping our partners bring food, shelter, health, and sanitation to people who have lost so much.

Your generous gifts ensure you are there for people when you are most needed. Visit the Act Now section for a complete list of appeals.

Gifts with Vision

The Gifts with Vision catalogue is where your gifts meet the world’s need. The gifts in the catalogue are Mission and Service projects that would not happen without your generosity. There are gift ideas to suit every interest, budget, and person. By giving a Gift with Vision, you can care for the planet; ensure those who are hungry have a hot, nutritious meal; or support an economic development initiative. A year-round opportunity to give a meaningful gift, Gifts with Vision ensures that your gift reflects your values.

The Healing Fund

The Healing Fund is one facet of the United Church’s ongoing work of reconciliation with Indigenous peoples dealing with the long-term effects of residential schools. The fund is used to support many innovative and effective programs in Indigenous communities that are helping people in the healing process.
