You are invited to join in our efforts through the Silent Angel Match Campaign whereby our anonymous benefactors have committed to match, dollar-for-dollar, each dollar we raise until December 31, 2011. Your donation now doubles the amount of help we can provide to families and individuals most in need of our programs.
The New Year 2012 will continue to provide on-going challenges for the unprecedented number of local families throughout our county who have been hit hard by the harsh economic downturn which is resulting in food insecurity, loss of jobs, and sometimes the loss of a home.
We anticipate that over 42,000 unduplicated persons, again, will ask for our help – and we have made our commitment.
This is the sole fundraising appeal we are making this year and your consideration is greatly appreciated.
You can support this effort by linking to the 'Donation Now ' tab above and to assure that your donation stays in your local community, please indicate your preference (Santa Maria, Lompoc, Santa Barbara, or Carpinteria) in the 'Comment' box on screen page 2.
Or, you may write your check - payable to "Catholic Charities Santa Barbara"- and mail it directly to our main office: 609 East Haley Street, Santa Barbara, CA 93103.
