Please, become one of our St. Catherine Builders!

St Catherine Builders are individuals who help us with generous grants in order to secure our future. Among our St. Catherine Builders we also find institutions, such as religious congregations.

St. Catherine Builders can be Sponsors or Legacy Donors, or both.

Sponsors

Sponsors support us financially with larger annual grants - ranging from £ 500 (= $ 750, € 750) a year.
Although our running expenses are not that high since we operate almost exclusively with unpaid voluntary workers, we could not survive without our Sponsors.
And we really need financial support. A detailed analysis of our running costs shows we work on a shoestring budget.
We have begun a revenue generating project that will eventually solve our annual problems, but for it to work a large debt needs to be paid off.
Catherine of Siena Builders will be remembered after their death by having a memorial page in our Book of Honour, if they so wish.

Legacy Donors

Many women and men who want to support us cannot do so during their lifetime because they have to guard themselves against unforseen social or medical expenses.
However, they realise that our work will benefit their children and grandchildren. At least such future generations should see the so much needed church reforms, especially the ordination of women.
By making a will and leaving us a legacy they make sure that their vision continues to inspire their children and grandchildren after their death and so will have a lasting impact.
All Catherine of Siena Builders will be remembered after their death by having a memorial page in our Book of Honour, if they so wish.
