Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston accepts donations by ACH or wire transfer through Amegy Bank, a subsidiary of Zions Bancorporation. The account is a U.S.-dollar checking account. You will need four pieces of information to complete the transfer: the account name, account number, routing number, and Swift code.

Contact your bank — in person, by phone, or through online banking — and tell them you want to send an ACH or wire transfer. Have the details below ready to give them. For an international wire, your bank will also ask for the Swift code. Once the transfer is sent, let Catholic Charities know so they can confirm receipt and send you a donation acknowledgment for your records.
