GIVE A ONE-TIME CONTRIBUTION NOW

While the primary financial support for Saint Patrick Parish is obtained through weekly offerings provided by parish members and guests, you can make a special contribution to further support the mission and future of the parish.

Please consider an immediate contribution through this potential option:

    "As each one has received a gift, use it to serve one another as good stewards of God’s varied grace. " 1 Peter 4:10

You can support Saint Patrick Parish in many ways above and beyond normal weekly stewardship contributions. Whether your gift is large or small, available for general parish operating needs or designated for a specific purpose, provided now or planned for the future, your special financial gift will help support the mission of Saint Patrick.

ONLINE BANKING TO MAKE MONTHLY OR WEEKLY CONTRIBUTIONS

One of the easiest ways to support St. Patrick Parish is through online banking.

Consider using online banking to make your monthly or weekly contributions. Simply go to your online banking (or you can go to your own bank teller, and they can help you too) and request “automatic bill pay.”  You will have to add “New Recipient” as “Saint Patrick Parish” (107 W. Walworth St. / Elkhorn, WI 53121). When asked for “Additional account info,” please use your envelope ID number or your full name to fill in that blank. Then, you only need to set up a “Recurring payment” of your amount to Saint Patrick Parish.

This is our preferred method because 100% of your donation goes to Saint Patrick Parish. When using a credit card, St. Patrick pays transaction and commission fees, which reduces the amount of your donation.  The automatic bill pay option also gives you complete control in making any changes to your donation that may be required in the future.

TO MAKE A GIFT VIA CHECK

Envelope donations are also accepted at St. Patrick. To donate via envelope, please make your check payable to Saint Patrick Parish and mail it or drop off your donation through the parish office or drop in the offertory basket.

GIFT OF A LIFE INSURANCE POLICY

Paid-up life insurance policies can be donated to St. Patrick Parish, or a donor can pay premiums on a new policy naming Saint Patricks Congregation as owner or beneficiary. 

DONOR-ADVISED FUNDS (DAF)

You can support St. Patrick Parish by establishing an account with your own financial institution by opening an endowed or provisional donor-advised fund (DAF). Accounts can be established in the donor’s family name, allowing loved ones to be memorialized. They are easy to establish with none of the administrative headaches and fees of private family foundations. They are flexible and allow the donors to recommend grant recipients; for the parish, for the school, and for other charities they you may wish to support. Thank You!
