Your charitable giving can also have eternal life. FY 2017 ANNUAL REPORT For God. For Others. Forever. Like the Holy Trinity, the Catholic Community Foundation’s new tagline has three parts. “For God” refers to the fact that legacy giving is a way to honor God. “For Others” refers to our Christian duty to serve others. And “Forever” refers to the enduring and everlasting nature of endowment funds. Collectively, these three elements provide an excellent summation of the Catholic Community Foundation and its purpose in our Archdiocese.

I’m particularly grateful for the many people I’ve met who care so deeply about advancing the mission of the Church in central and southern Indiana. For 30 years, the Catholic Community Foundation has been a trusted partner guiding your generosity and support for important parish and archdiocesan ministries. Generous people in the Archdiocese have helped our foundation’s net assets increase to more than $179 million in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2017. More than $7.2 million was distributed to parishes, schools, cemeteries, and ministry agencies during the year. Since its inception in 1987, the Catholic Community Foundation has distributed more than $112.7 million from endowments for ministry. Each year, we continue to increase the number of endowments, and more people are choosing the Catholic Community Foundation to steward their gifts of legacy. The foundation added 13 new endowments this past year. Today, 479 funds meet almost every ministry need of our archdiocese, ranging from Catholic education and lifelong faith formation to retirement benefits for priests and helping those most in need through our Catholic Charities agencies. The foundation staff is ready to help you plan and meet your charitable giving objectives by offering a variety of choices in how you can make your generosity felt throughout the archdiocese. They do so through endowment funding, donor-advised funds, planned gifts, and other ways in which you can remember unique interests with your parish or other ministry programs. Thank you for sustaining the good works noted in this annual report in support of proclaiming and establishing the Kingdom of God in our Archdiocese. And thank you to those of you who will take the important step of planned giving during this coming year. The Catholic Community Foundation is honored to oversee your legacy. May the Lord bless you! With assurance of my prayers and best wishes, I remain Sincerely yours in Christ, Most Reverend Charles C.
