WHY YOUR GIFT IS IMPORTANT

The Diocesan Development Drive provides over 50% of the annual operating funds for the Catholic Diocese of Salt Lake City to care for the pastoral needs of Utah families, their children and the many others who seek our help. The pledge goal for the 2006 Diocesan Development Drive is $2,000,000.
