Other Ways to Support
Saint Vincent Basilica Parish ​

Church Envelopes

Envelopes give you a way to regularly contribute to several causes in addition to tithing. If you would like to receive church envelopes, please contact Denise Woloshun at 724-539-8629 ext. 11 or denise.woloshun@stvincent.edu.

Collections at Mass

We gladly accept cash donations, however, if you want us to record your contribution and include it on your end-of-year statement for income tax purposes, we can only do so if you use envelopes.

Internet Banking

Many banks allow you to make one-time or multiple payments online. Use your bank’s website and follow their instructions. And as mentioned above, WeShare is our recommended method of online transactions.

Gifting of Stock

Gifts of stock are excellent ways to give, since the parish would not have to pay a gift tax. Please call the parish office, 724-539-8629 extension 14, and speak with Dorothy Gerhard for instructions on giving gifts of stock.

Specific Gifts or Donations

Saint Vincent Basilica Parish makes giving a gift to the Parish simple by being a part of the Saint Vincent online store. Parish patrons may make online contributions to the Basilica preservation fund or make an honorary tribute or memorial gift.

Checks and Receipts

Please make all checks payable to “Saint Vincent Basilica Parish”. Use the Memo line to tell us what your check is to be used for.

There are times when church projects and programs will request in-kind items. The office can provide receipts for these donations.
