Our Funding Needs
Dominican friars give up all personal property at their solemn profession. The generous support provided by lay people has always been essential to our mission.
General Support
Your gift for general support will be directed by us to the areas of greatest need.
£1 million needed each year
Forming Friars for Mission
St Dominic’s Formation Fund supports the initial and ongoing formation of the friars.
With many vocations, each friar costs £19,000 per year of study.

Each of our priories has a unique mission. Your donation will assist the work they do.
