Donate Now

The backbone of First United Church’s funding comes from donations made by individuals, congregations, foundations, corporations, and the Mission and Service Fund of the United Church of Canada. We also receive funding from BC Housing to support our 60-bed shelter.

Each and every ministry of First United Church, from the advocates, to community workers, to chaplaincy, to hosts, to the meal and storage programs, to office, hospitality, janitorial staff… and more… are supported entirely by individuals and groups who give dollars and give time. Donate to First United today to support our work!
