Dear Sacred Heart parishioners,

I am writing to ask your support for an Archdiocese-wide initiative that Cardinal Tobin has launched to support our parish community, outreach to those in need, and parishes in response to the effects of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic on everyday life.

We are partnering with the team at GoFundMe, a leading online giving organization, to provide one online platform for the faithful to support outreach to those most in need as well as cover the critical needs of their own and other parish communities during the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. This is a coordinated and unified effort.  The first place people often go in time of need is the local parish. Under the current conditions brought on by the Coronavirus ( COVID-19) pandemic, parishes are limited in the services they can offer to the faithful. 

Cardinal Tobin has temporarily waived the usual archdiocesan assessment in support of this initiative.

Please consider making a tax-deductible contribution to our parish. Visit our parish GoFundMe page: https://charity.gofundme.com/o/en/campaign/sacred-heart-haworth

The funding flow for this initiative offers both simplicity and transparency for our parish community and others who choose to contribute:

• All money raised through individual parish GoFundMe pages will flow into a central archdiocesan fund, and the Parish Business Services team will aim to release all funds to parishes in the amount raised for the parish within the week
• Pastors, parishioners, and the public can track how much each parish has raised in total on their individual parish GoFundMe pages
• All money raised through the Parishes in Need fund will be distributed to conduct outreach to those in need and to those parish communities unable to meet their critical needs alone
• Contributions are tax-deductible, and contributors will receive tax receipts automatically

• For those who would like to continue to give through envelopes or cash during the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, please mail your envelope to the Parish Center.
• For those who give through our existing online giving platform, you may continue to do so.  If you would like to sign up for online giving, you can do so above on the "Online Giving" link.
• Please also remember the Annual Appeal among your options for contributing

Please see the homepage for information about our livestreamed Masses.  Cardinal Tobin will continue to livestream the 12:00 Noon Mass every Sunday as long as necessary. 
Thank you for generosity to our parish and to those parish communities unable to meet their critical needs alone.

Many Catholic parishes face long-term financial challenges today and parishes in Bergen County are not exempt from these challenges. One way to ensure that Sacred Heart continues its mission to serve parishioners in our area is by making a personal bequest (gift) to Sacred Heart in your will. Bequests and legacy gifts provide a lifeline to the future by enabling religious organizations to achieve long-term financial stability and sustainability.

When preparing your estate plan, while considering your personal circumstances and those of your loved ones, please also consider a gift to Sacred Heart. Some examples include:

    • Life insurance or retirement plans
    • Real estate
    • Wills, bequests, trusts
    • Stocks and securities
    • Donor advised funds
    • Gift annuities
    • Charitable trusts

If you are interested in learning more about Planned Giving opportunities, please contact Father Bob or any Finance Council member. Thank you!
