When we participate in fundraising for local and national collections (such as the Catholic Services Appeal, Retirement Fund for Religious, Catholic Campaign for Human Development or VEAP), we make special envelopes available in the narthex. You can also use online giving by clicking on the "Make a Donation" button on the bottom of this page and then selecting the fund you wish to support. For the Catholic Services Appeal, you can give directly via the
CSAF website by selecting "St. Richard" from the parish designation drop-down box.
Please note that if you use a credit card, fees will be deducted from your gift, but if you give using ACH from your checking account, the entire amount will be received by the collection (the same is true for all online giving).
If you are writing out a check, please make it payable to "St. Richard's Catholic Church" with the name of the special colleciton in the memo. That way, we can include it on your year-end giving statement. If you may a check payable directly to the collection name, it will take longer to process it and we will not be able to include it on your parish contribution statement.
Thanks for your help in remitting these funds smoothly!
