During these trying times when corporate dollars are cut, charities have an obligation to demonstrate not only need but a constituency dedicat Private dollars are now more important than ever. Your generosity at this time is so critical. Our fundraising efforts support so many worthy causes like the followings vignettes:
Your year-end gift will allow DeSales Media to continue to provide top-notch articles and features through our Catholic faith via the Diocese’s weekly Catholic newspaper, The Tablet. Additionally, a gift at this time will allow for cutting-edge television programs on NET and stat-of-the-art Catholic websites and social media.
Time and time again, supporters of the Catholic Foundation have answered the call. In 2013, you, and so many others like you, generously contributed to the above-mentioned programs that makes the Brooklyn Diocese shine and become the benchmark around our great nation.
Please again answer our call and support our efforts with a gift at this time. The Catholic Foundation will continue our fundraising to provide for the programs that are synonymous with our Catholic faith.

Additionally, please act as a messenger for us and let your family, friends and colleagues know about the Catholic Foundation. The secret is out – together, we can make a difference and buttress the support of the Church.
By contributing now, your commitment demonstrates that the work supported by the Catholic Foundation will continue to shape generations that follow. Furthermore, it allows the Foundation to approach corporations and foundations who often review donor participation rates before deciding upon which non-profits to support.
The Foundation tries to make giving extremely easy by allowing you to click here.
