St. Joseph Parish Target Campaign Goal: $10,000,000


WE'VE MET AND EXCEEDED OUR CAMPAIGN GOAL!!

100%
Over $10,000,000 Raised

We are excited to announce that St. Joseph Parish has surpassed our $10 million goal for the Forward in Faith and Excellence Campaign! We've raised more than $10.2 million, and 539 parish families have made a pledge to support our parish, and Catholic schools. We are grateful to God for the way He has blessed our efforts. We are grateful to those families who have made a sacrificial gift to ensure that future generations of parish families have strong schools and a beautiful parish. We want every parish family to be part of this success story. If you haven't made a pledge yet, you can still be a part of this important effort:

  • 90% of all pledges stay at St. Joseph for our parish projects.
  • We want to increase our participation rate (currently at 33% of parish families) and give everyone a chance to be a part of this exciting campaign for our parish and Catholic schools.
  • We know that historically, not all pledge payments are honored, and that they’re typically redeemed at around 85% for campaigns with 5-year pledge periods. Going past our goal in pledges will give us a better chance to fully fund all our parish projects.
  • Our parish building committee is in the beginning stages of working on our parish projects and we anticipate the bids and costs to be higher since the parish first received estimates a year ago.
