Dear CMCS-Men and Readers, |
|
|---|
|
Thank you to the generous men who responded to last week's calls for support! If you're considering contributing a few dollars this week, we would greatly appreciate it—please make your donation by Thursday, February 13th. Then our fundraising software, Anedot, will be updating the technology on their platform. While they've consistently performed well, transitions can sometimes come with unexpected issues. We encourage you to prayerfully donate today at give.cmcsmen.net. Your support is crucial as we approach the Lenten appeal in just three weeks, which generates over half of our annual budget. Thank you! |

Once again, as you consider your ability to give, please take into consideration:
- We have never had financial reserves: CMCS Apostolate / CMCSMen.net is entirely user-supported, trusting day by day in God's providence and depending totally on the generosity of the people we serve.
- We do not seek to raise more funds than we need: our resources are distributed absolutely free of charge, reaching thousands men across Vicaiate VI and around the archdiocese each year—at a cost of only pennies per person served.
- We are committed to keeping costs at a minimum: The CMCS Team is all volunteer, the director earns no full-time salary, and no rent or utilities costs are incurred as we utilize home offices, keeping our annual budget less than $4,000!

Sustaining our apostolate relies solely on the support from those who appreciate our efforts.
The clock is ticking—please consider making a donation of any amount.
If financial support isn't possible for you at this moment, your prayers would be immensely valued! |
