“I give because I believe. Faith is like a spark. It lights the way for people to look beyond themselves into the hearts and souls of those who are suffering or in need.”
Shining a Light on Good Works
With gratitude for the many partners who join in our mission, we are delighted to share the 2022 Community Impact Report of the Catholic Foundation of Northwest Pennsylvania.
During 2022 we welcomed new donors by offering them a charitable giving tool that brings them joy, fulfillment, and peace of mind. You’ll read about the Sullivan family siblings whose vision and generosity will help fund the perpetual care of the parish cemetery where their parents lie in eternal rest.
As beneficiaries of grants from the Catholic Foundation, Catholic ministries and programs leveraged donor generosity, doing good work in our midst. A sampling of beneficiary organizations listed in the report show our impact extending to Catholic teens, schools, teachers, clergy and parishes.
Also, during 2022 we celebrated the 15th anniversary of our founding. Momentum built over the years demonstrates the opportunity and value of this Catholic community foundation. Our commitment today is stronger than ever as we deliver on our mission.
Recent years have shown that in the face of uncertainty in the world and financial markets, endowments hold steady. There are challenges ahead, but with the grace of God, and this generous community invested in keeping our Catholic faith alive for generations to come, we are confident that our Catholic Foundation will continue to light the path to the future with faith and purpose.
Thank you for your generosity, partnership, and vision in this important work.
