Speak with a representative at your employer’s human resources department and see if religious organizations are eligible to receive matching gift funds. If your gift is eligible, simply fill out a matching gift form from your employer, and send it along with your gift to the Cardinal’s Appeal Office.

Organizations that have matched gifts to the Cardinal’s Appeal in the past 3 years include:

A Prayer for Fathers

God our Father, We give you thanks and praise for fathers young and old.

We pray for young fathers, newly embracing their vocation; May they find courage and

perseverance to balance work, family and faith in joy and sacrifice.

We pray for our own Fathers around the world whose children are lost or suffering; May they

know that the God of compassion walks with them in their sorrow.

We pray for men who are not fathers but still mentor and guide us

with fatherly love and advice.

We remember fathers, grandfathers, and great grandfathers who are no longer with us but who live forever in our memory and nourish us

with their love. Amen
