Philanthropy Efforts
What we do for the poor, what we do for those who have no one to help them and no one to turn to — what we do for them, we do for Jesus.

We are one family of faith. When one part of our family suffers, we come together to help alleviate the pain of another. So join us in supporting our schools and parishes who are experiencing the effects of COVID-19. Together, let us rise up and support our local community.
When you make a gift to the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, you have tremendous flexibility in determining how the funds will be used, as well as many options for making your gift.Directed gifts allow you to designate your gift to a program such as Together in Mission, Catholic Education Foundation, or the Priest Retirement Fund to name a few. When you make a directed gift to the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, you enjoy the satisfaction of knowing you are supporting a program that is personally meaningful to you.
You also have the option of designating your gift for current use or for endowment. Current-use gifts provide funds and flexibility over the short term, whereas endowment gifts provide security over the long term by expanding the Archdiocese’s financial base and creating a predictable source of future income for such things as tuition assistance and priest retirement.

Together in Mission
Together in Mission is the annual opportunity for thousands of Catholics like you to recommit to building God’s kingdom and investing in our local community. Some of our parishes and schools struggle to minister to their communities and others worry they may have to close their doors – doing so would affect thousands, were the need is greatest. Your gift will sustain and equip these centers of the community to stay alive today and for generations to come.
Catholic Education Foundation
Your gift continues a 34-year legacy of providing a quality Catholic education to the most financially deserving students in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles.
Priests Retirement Fund
Your gift to the Priest Retirement Fund is a meaningful investment and true blessing for the care and comfort of our spiritual fathers as they enter the later chapters in life.
