Living is Giving is the major fundraising program of the Synod of New South Wales and the ACT. It links congregations’ giving and mission planning with the mission of the whole Uniting Church, at home and abroad.

Contributions to Living is Giving help sustain vital ministries like chaplaincy in schools, universities, rural areas, prisons, hospitals and mental health facilities. It also continues to advance the church’s mission work in the areas of Indigenous, cross-cultural, emerging ministries, theological education, tertiary ministry, and advocacy work — areas which have transformed many communities.
