Advanced day giving begins on Monday, November 18, and runs through the start of the #iGiveCatholic Giving Day on December 3. Why is advanced giving important? It offers St Joseph and St Anthony the opportunity to market the giving day ahead of time, helping us reach those donors who might be unavailable to give on December 3 due to holiday travel, allowing extra time for those who would prefer to give via cash or check, and/or those who just might forget!
