On Tuesday, December 1st from Midnight until 11:59pm there will be an online fundraising event called #weGIVECATHOLIC. This event has been happening the past few years on the Tuesday following Black Friday in an effort to raise funds for the various religious organizations in the Diocese of Cleveland.
With the pandemic all of the fundraisers at the church have been canceled and these events have helped us raise money for various projects at the parish.
We have participated in this campaign the past few years but have not taken a very active approach to it. This year we are asking that you also participate. Soon there will be a link on our website that will take you to our Home page for #weGIVECATHOLIC. Until December 1st the website will just give you an overview of the campaign as it pertains to us. On December 1st at midnight the site will change and you will be able to make your donation. Catholic Charities is the group behind this campaign and they will be awarding cash prizes to parishes who actively participate in the event. These cash prizes will go directly into our account and will be used for our project.
The monies raised are going towards the installation of new carpeting in the church and to redo some of the brick work on the baptismal font.
Our goal is to raise $25,000 during this campaign and with your help we can do it.
