The Archdiocese of Philadelphia has partnered with The Catholic Foundation of Greater Philadelphia to participate in #iGiveCatholic for the fifth consecutive year after raising more than $5.6 million for Catholic entities throughout the Archdiocese since 2020. Today is the official #iGiveCatholic Giving Day.
This year, 152 Catholic entities in the five-county metropolitan region are registered to participate including all 15 Archdiocesan high schools and all three Archdiocesan schools of special education.
In 2023, the Catholic Charities Appeal of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia and the Saint Charles Borromeo Seminary Appeal placed first and second respectively for most dollars raised by participating entities throughout the country as part of this national Catholic fundraising initiative.

#iGiveCatholic is a Giving Day that kicks off the charitable season and brings the Catholic community together to give thanks and give back. It is is celebrated annually on #GivingTuesday, which follows Thanksgiving, Black Friday, and Cyber Monday.
#iGiveCatholic presents an opportunity for Catholics, and all those who support the Church’s good works, to affirm their belief in serving others. The initiative also gives parishes, schools, and charitable ministries the chance to rally support for the work of their pastoral and charitable ministries during a season traditionally associated with giving.
