Charitable Giving
The PCC of St Dunstan’s and St Peter’s aims to donate ten percent of the church’s annual income to charitable causes. The PCC collaboratively reach a decision on this in light of the financial position of the church at the end of each calendar year.
The parish supports local, national, and overseas causes, both with and without church connections.
Recently, the parish has supported the following charities:
Mind Over Mountains www.mindovermountains.org.uk
Bucks Historic Churches Trust www.bucks-historic-churches.org
Wycombe Youth for Christ www.wycombeyfc.org.uk
Ebony Horse Club www.ebonyhorseclub.org.uk/
The Whitechapel Mission www.whitechapel.org.uk
Baby Unit, Relatives And Parents Support
(Stoke Mandeville NICU) www.burpscharity.org
A further £600 is also donated to the Children’s Christian Holiday Club ‘Lighthouse’.
