HELP SOMEONE WITH YOUR GIFT!
The Christmas season prompts us to reflect on our many blessings and the sharing of our gifts so that we may do more good in the world around us.
As you contemplate the impact you wish to make, please consider the Novatio Foundation when planning your donations. It is a tangible way to express your faith and deeply held values while helping those in need. Whether through a donation or by naming the Novatio Foundation as a beneficiary in your will, you breathe new life into parish and community organizations across the region, enabling them to continue to support those in need.
