Donate to Fort William Kilmallie
In communities across Scotland and beyond, churches provide ministry, practical support and loving care to people from all walks of life. Many Church of Scotland ministers and their congregations provide pastoral care and spiritual support to people who need reassurance, hope and comfort.
In addition, many churches provide critical community services such as running foodbanks and feeding the hungry and homeless. A donation from you can help support the Church's work in your area and ensure the Church is sufficiently equipped and resourced to serve congregations and their communities.
Whether you are a church member who wants to give your regular offering to your own congregation or a friend to the Church who is moved to contribute for the good of your community, we want to help you support the Church in whichever way you feel led.
Through the donation form below, you may choose to give a one-off donation or donate every month. You will not be personally charged extra to donate through this facility, provided your donation is made in UK pounds. PayPal does charge a processing fee on all transactions which will be deducted from your donation before it reaches your chosen recipient. The fee applied is the charity transaction rate which is currently 1.4% + 20p. For more information on fees please visit the PayPal website. Please note that you do not require a PayPal account to make a donation.
For ongoing support, consider donating via Standing Order. Standing orders are still the most convenient and cost-effective method for regular givers and supporters. A simple standing order form is available for download. (Please note: the form can be filled out on a computer but you must download it before filling it out, otherwise you will not be able to save your changes.)
