Donations & Dedicated Giving
Post covid
As we emerge from the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, we find ourselves in a period of renewal and resilience. At St. George’s, we are dedicated to not only restoring our vibrant worship community but also extending our support to those in need. The last two years , we have pledged our assistance to two remarkable homes: St. Christopher’s Children’s Home and Uitkoms Home for Girls. In order to sustain these efforts and cover the ongoing costs of our ministry—both in-person and online—we invite our parishioners to consider making dedicated gifts, pledges, or one-time donations. Your generosity will enable us to continue our mission of support and compassion, ensuring that vulnerable children receive the care and love they deserve. Together, let us build a brighter future for both our community and those we serve.

Dedicated Giving
St George’s is totally funded by its parishioners and also contributes generously to the finances of the Diocese of Johannesburg. Its expenses are significant, and include salaries for staff and clergy, maintenance of its historic and old buildings as well as significant outreach programmes. Obviously, careful budgeting and financial planning is essential which is why we encourage parishioners to commit to monthly giving. These dedicatedgiving pledges are made during July each year, and represent our individual commitments to supporting the church’s work and witness. Making this commitment should be seen as a spiritual discipline as much as anything else, the outward sign of our intention to include
God’s work in our day-to-day lives. Dedicated-giving pledges also enables the parish council to plan properly and provides the stability needed to ensure we can undertake long-term projects.
Dedicated giving is an important portfolio within the governing structure of the parish.
