Members of Holy Cross strive to support the church through the generous giving of their Time, Talent, and Treasure.

Giving

"Store up treasures in heaven: For where your treasure is, there your heart will also be..."

Matthew 6:19-21

For over 150 years, Holy Cross has been supported by gifts and donations from people who cherish our work and want to safeguard this church for future generations. Your donation will help to continue this important work.

The financial support of members and friends is essential for our ministry and survival. We are an independent charity - we receive no money from any church body or government.

Ways to Give

To make a donation into our Italian (€) or United Kingdom (£) accounts please contact us for bank details.

Alternatively, you can set up a regular donation to Holy Cross through the Parish Giving Scheme, or make a one-off gift through the Charities Aid Foundation (CAF) by following the secure links to the right.

Legacies, and planning of wills, are also an important way that you can support Holy Cross. Please contact us to speak about your lasting gift.
