#iGiveCatholic 2025

$4,084,694...the current balance of our debt.

$4,084,694...that speed bump that limits what we can do.

$4,084,694...what we need to reduce/retire to move forward.

So...because of all the reasons above AND a huge matching gift of $250,000 from a St. Leo family, our rally cry for iGiveCatholic 2025 will be...

DUMP THE DEBT IN 2026!!! 

Our goal for iGiveCatholic in 2025 is to raise $250,000 in order to take full advantage of our matching gift.  We will apply the $500,000 to the principle of our mortgage.  Our donor has expressed an interest in making a similar, if not larger gift in 2026...if we are successful in reaching our goal.

When we look at the size of our debt, we see a monumental, if not impossible task.  If we ignore it or think someone else will take care of it, we will remain in debt for a long time. 

How do you eat an elephant?  

One bite at a time.

We can do the same thing with our debt...take one bite at a time!  We are focusing all of our efforts on meeting the total goal of $500,000.  Achieving this goal will open more doors and opportunities to take the next "one bite at a time" in 2026.

We want to thank you for making iGiveCatholic so successful the past seven years.  We also want to ask everyone to prayerfully consider making a contribution this year to help us reach our goal of $500,000.
