history

In 1969, Cardinal O’Boyle established the annual appeal for the Archdiocese of Washington. Since then, the Appeal has delivered millions of dollars to provide loving care, education and leadership to people throughout our community.

Today all 144 parishes/missions in our Archdiocese participate in the Appeal and have individual goals for giving. Here are results from recent years.
