Invite from Archbishop Hebda

Mission of the Catholic Services Appeal Foundation (CSAF)
https://csafspm.org/

CSAF works with each parish of The Archdiocese of Saint Paul and Minneapolis to conduct an Annual Appeal to fund 20 Designated Ministries within the Archdiocese that no one parish can support on its own.  A major focus for CSAF is to effectively communicate how the Designated Ministries serve the poor, support life, strengthen the Faith, and transform lives through the Gospel. CSAF's obligation is to honor and implement donor intent, with full accountability to the donors, with full transparency as to where each donor’s dollar is spent. 

CSAF coordinates and administers the Appeal on behalf of the parishes, providing them with the necessary resources and services, and receiving and distributing gifts from parishioners to and for the benefit of the Designated Ministries, including local parishes. CSAF strives to provide complete transparency about the use of the restricted gifts received and to ensure donors that their gift is used for the purpose for which they gave it. CSAF is a Minnesota nonprofit corporation recognized as exempt under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3) and operates exclusively for religious, charitable and educational purposes in conformity with the laws, theology, philosophy, teachings and doctrines of the Roman Catholic Church.

When St. Joseph meets our yearly goal, a percentage will be returned to us!
Donation envelopes will be available at all Masses. Please mail your donation in the provided envelope, put it in the collection basket, brought to the Parish Office or made online. If writing a check, please write it out to St. Joseph Catholic Community and write "CSAF" in the memo line.
