Giving Tuesday - November 29, 2016

Friends,

#GivingTuesday is a global day of giving.  Celebrated on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving and the widely recognized shopping events Black Friday & Cyber Monday, #GivingTuesday kicks off the charitable season.  This year on Tuesday, November 29th, the Diocese of Fall River is participating in this global day dedicated to charity.  Last year, more than 45,000 organizations in 71 countries came together to celebrate #GivingTuesday.  We invite you to join the movement by donating this November 29th.  Remember to share your giving on Facebook, Twitter, & Instagram with #GivingTuesday!

Yours in Christ,

+Bishop Edgar da Cunha

3 WAYS OF DONATING ON #GIVINGTUESDAY:

• #IGiveCCA - Donate to Catholic Charities!

Catholic Charities supports the many charitable ministries and programs sponsored by the Fall River Diocese.  Throughout the year these programs touch the lives of tens of thousands of persons, some young, others old; some sick in body, other in spirit; some broken, others confused with nowhere to turn.  Without regard to race, creed, nationality, gender, or economic status, the many ministries supported by this annual fundraising effort reach out to those in need, motivated by God's call to love one another.  To donate please click here.

• #IGiveFACE - Donate to the Foundation to Advance Catholic Education!

The goal of FACE is to ensure that no child is denied the opportunity of attending one of the Diocese's Catholic Schools due to financial hardship.  FACE provides need-based scholarships to the children of the Diocese.  To donate please click here.

• #IGiveSVdP - Donate to St. Vincent de Paul Parish!

We always appreciate when our parishioners make a donation to our parish, and we thank you for your generosity and support!  To donate please contact the parish office.

Fr. Wilson, Fr. Chris, and the Parish Staff would like

to wish you and your families a blessed Thanksgiving!
