Your Giving in Action
At Oceanside, we believe strongly in living a life of Radical Generosity. In order to help you cultivate a generous lifestyle, we've created six easy and convenient ways for you to give:
1. Online
One-time or recurring giving is available on our online giving page through our Tithe.ly platform. Register your account for faster giving and to securely store your giving info, track your giving history and more.**
2. Text
Securely make a gift by texting GIVE to (855) 777-6481. You’ll be asked to register if it's your first time. Don’t forget to save our giving number in your phone! You can always text EDIT to update your information, set up a recurring gift, and check the status of a gift.
(All sensitive financial information is stored with the highest bank-level security. Your phone number will never be sold, traded, or given to third parties. You will only be texted to confirm your giving.)
3. E-Transfer: [email protected]
Use Interac e-Transfer® to send your gift directly from your bank account to the church. A great way to give that costs the church no fees!
Simply add us as a recipient in your online banking using our dedicated giving email: [email protected]
Please include your first and last name for our records and charitable receipt purposes. If you would like to designate your gift to a certain area (missions, care fund etc.) include it in the memo.
Note: You may at first be prompted to give a security question and answer (in which case use the answer Giving). However, you should eventually see a box to check saying "I understand that OCEANSIDE COMMUNITY CHURCH has registered for Autodeposit and will not need to answer a security question to deposit funds."
4. Cash/Cheque
Of course, you can always give by cash or cheque at the church anytime. Just drop your offering or giving envelope in the Giving Box located at the back of the sanctuary. Or, if you prefer, mail it in!
5. Mobile App

6. PayPal Giving Fund (and Facebook Give)
We're now set up to give through PayPal Giving Fund, a special platform by PayPal for charities with no fees charged to us or you! This also allows us to accept donations through Facebook, also with no fees. Give here or set us up as your favourite charity in your PayPal account or search for us as a Registered Charitable Organization in PayPal or Facebook Give.
Note: Your tax receipt will come from PayPal Giving Fund Canada, a registered charity, and not from our church. But don't worry, the money comes directly into our bank account and PayPal takes no cut or fees.
Charitable Giving Receipts are provided in February of each year.

We are a Registred Canadian Charity: #89378 5329 RR001.
Thanks for your generosity!
