Want to make a "One Time" Donation to Westside?
On the donation site, choose the appropriate Fiscal year. Currently it is "Pledge 2024/25."
You can specify the amount as well as the frequency: "Once, now" or "Once on a future date". You can then choose a Start Date. You do not need to create an account to make a one time donation. Feel free to leave us a note in the note window as well. We appreciate you.
Want to make a Recurring Donation (A Pledge) to Westside?
On the donation stie, choose the appropriate Fiscal year. Currently it is "Pledge 2024/25."
You can specify the amount as well as the frequency: "Once, now"; "Once on a future date"; and "Monthly." You can then choose a Start Date.
If you plan on making a recurring donation (Pledge), you must create an account. This will allow you to keep track of your donations.
Want to donate to our "Share the Plate" Partner?
On the donation site, choose "Share the Plate" in the window below. Recurring donations to our STP partners will require you to create an account. Our STP partner changes quarterly. Therefore, we recommend making a one-time donation instead of recurring donations to our STP partners. Learn about our current STP partner.
Want to donate to our Endowment Funds?
An Endowment gift helps to ensure that Westside will continue to thrive for years to come.
Endowment funds cannot be used for operational expenses. Instead, disbursements from our Endowment funds pay for things like fresh flowers in our Sanctuary, building improvements, new parking lot lights, and more.
For Endowment Gifts, see the Instructions below.
For an explanation of the other funds you can donate to, see the Donation Options below.
