Approximately 85% of our church population have historically made their donations to St. Leonard's via cash or envelopes in the offering plates during Sunday services.
Other options for donating are available which would help mitigate this problem. They are:
A- Make your donations to the Church by cheque to St. Leonard's-On-The-Hill which
you can deposit in the mailbox slot beside the Main entry door to the church, or mail it in. These
cheques will be deposited in the St. Leonard’s bank account by one of the Church
depositors.
B- A system for automatic monthly bank withdrawals was set up a few years ago,
such as many of us use for paying our City Utility, Telephone and our other monthly
bills, This approach is not widely used by Parishioners but those who donate in this
manner really like it.
C- An arrangement has very recently been made with St. Leonard’s main bank, Servus
Credit Union, through which Parishioners can make donations by e-transfers from their
own bank to the St. Leonard’s Servus Credit Union account, free of charge. We will
be able to track the donations for each identified donor for income tax reporting. This is
an excellent new option for Parishioners.
D- For those who receive income from stock market investments such as shares in
conservative holdings such as banks and utilities, a system has been set up with the
Diocese through which Parishioners can donate shares to St. Leonard's through the
Diocese which they then sell and forward the sales proceeds to St. Leonard's. The
beauty of this system is that there is no income tax for you to pay on the increase in
value of the shares since they were purchased, often several years previously.
Unfortunately, the value of donating in this manner this year is very limited unless the
stock market recovers the losses in value experienced to date in 2020. A few
Parishioners also take advantage of this giving option when worthwhile.
