Yes. Your parish stewardship campaign supports your local parish. Your Annual Catholic Appeal donation has a much broader impact by funding ministries and services that benefit people across parishes, cities, cultures, and generations throughout Western Washington. This includes youth and young adult ministry, seminarian formation, hospital and healthcare ministry, prison ministry, immigrant and refugee ministry, multi-cultural ministry, faith formation, and so much more.

Parishes are the direct recipients of archdiocesan ministries and services supported by the Annual Catholic Appeal. With your support, the archdiocese provides services, support and resources to parishes which simplify workloads, improve communication, and elevate the faith journey. Additionally, parishes that exceed their Annual Catholic Appeal goal will receive the overage as a rebate toward a parish project.

Give the amount that is most meaningful to you. Last year’s average donation across the Archdiocese was $515. Please consider a contribution of 1% or more of your annual income to support this vital campaign. Moreover, a dollar a day goes a long way ($365 for a year) in support of our local Catholic community.
