BCS values the generous support of individuals, churches, organisations and businesses who share in and contribute to our life-transforming care vision.
There are a number of ways that you can help us make a difference in the lives of people living with disadvantage and distress, including:
• General donations
• Memorial gifts
• Special Occasion gifts
• Bequests
Many of our BCS LifeCare programs do not receive government funding and rely heavily on donations.
All donations to BCS are tax deductible. Please read on and find out more about how you can support us.

Memorial Gifts
The passing of someone close to you is rightfully the time for remembrance. Many people search for ways to recognise the life of a spouse, parent, friend or family member. A memorial donation becomes a meaningful way to offer a gift of lasting worth.
You may wish to honour the memory of a loved one in a unique and gratifying way by helping others. A memorial donation to Baptist Community Services – NSW & ACT in their name will continue their legacy of love and hope. A receipt will be sent to you acknowledging your tax deductible donation.
BCS has envelopes for Memorial Donations, which you may like to have available at a funeral.
To arrange for Memorial Donation envelopes to be delivered, or to discuss any aspect of memorial donations, please contact BCS at

Special Occasion Gifts
You may like to make a donation to BCS instead of giving birthday, wedding or anniversary presents; or ask those close to you to make a gift on your behalf in lieu of a present or to mark a special date or event. For more information about special occasion gifts, please contact BCS at
fundraising@bcs.org.au or call 02 1300 275 227.
