This year #iGiveCatholic is on #GivingTuesday, November 28, 2023 from 12:01 AM to 11:59 PM (midnight to midnight) CST and takes place at lafayette.iGiveCatholic.org. Advanced Giving will take place November 13-27, 2023.
#iGiveCatholic is a one-day online giving event for the faithful in dioceses across the nation (and the world!) to come together and raise as many charitable dollars as possible for Catholic parishes, schools, and nonprofit ministries on #GivingTuesday, November 28, 2023. Last year, the eighth year of the campaign raised more than $18.5 million for 1,500+ participating parishes, schools, and nonprofit ministries within 42 arch/dioceses participating across the country.
#GivingTuesday is a global day of giving fueled by the power of social media and collaboration. Celebrated on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving (in the U.S.) and the widely recognized shopping events Black Friday and Cyber Monday, #GivingTuesday kicks off the charitable season when many focus on their holiday and end-of-year giving.
Thank you to these faithful sponsors for 2023! Their investment as a sponsor in #iGiveCatholic directly supports the organizations who participate. They stand with our ministries who serve thousands in the 8 civil parishes that comprise the Diocese of Lafayette. Their gifts provide the matches as well as competitive prizes that incentivize success and creativity by participating ministries. Prize winners and those receiving matches re-invest their winnings to fund their project goals. We are so grateful to them for making #iGiveCatholic a priority in their community outreach strategy.
