Nothing ‘Quiet’ About Archdiocese’s Campaign - TheNonProfitTimes

Nothing ‘Quiet’ About Archdiocese’s Campaign - TheNonProfitTimes: he archdiocese tightened its belt by slashing expenses and forged ahead with a parish-based, $135-million capital campaign called “Changing Lives Together,” which ends next year.

“We launched the campaign because we had to. That’s the bottom line,” said William Blaul, the campaign’s communications coordinator.

Now nearing the halfway mark of the staggered campaign, Changing Lives Together has received $52 million in pledges from more than 36,000 households. The pledges are to be paid over three years. “Changing Lives Together is right on goal,” Blaul said. “Our fulfillment right now is right where we want it to be -- better than 90 percent.”
