HOW TO MAKE A DONATION
Every gift to Knox United Church helps keep this community alive and growing—supporting worship, pastoral care, outreach and justice work, programs for all ages, and the behind-the-scenes essentials that make a welcoming Sunday (and a warm building on a Calgary winter day) possible. Your donation is a practical way to invest in what happens here: a place where people find music and meaning, friendship and support, and a steady invitation to show up for one another and for our wider community. Whether you give once or set up ongoing giving, you’re helping Knox be an Open Space, a Vibrant Place, and a home for Sacred Connections—today and for the people who will walk through these doors next.
