Dear Friends in Christ,

I am thrilled to share a report on the success of the Archdiocese of Chicago’s To Teach Who Christ Is campaign, which launched in 2012. Thanks to your extraordinary generosity and unwavering support, we have achieved remarkable results in transforming our Church in Chicago. 

I am delighted to report that, as a result of your generous gifts, we invested generously in local parish needs, supported scholarships for Catholic school families, increased funding for religious education and met critical facility needs. These achievements are a testament to your dedication and commitment to our shared mission.

While a handful of pledges are still being fulfilled, I am pleased to announce that most pledges have been received and put to work to strengthen and enrich our archdiocese. Your contributions have made a tangible difference in the lives of those we serve, and we are deeply grateful for your ongoing partnership and support.


As we reflect on the success of To Teach Who Christ Is, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you. Your generosity, compassion, and dedication have made a profound difference in our community, and I am personally very grateful for your support.

Thank you once again for your generosity and commitment to our mission. Your continued support is crucial as we strive to further strengthen our community and serve those in need. 

Faithfully yours,

Brendan Keating
Chief Development Officer
Archdiocese of Chicago
