Auxiliary Fundraising

A keen interest in their church and school communities meant lots of volunteer work for co-op Moms and Dads of all faiths. Volunteering became part of their lives, and it made a difference both spiritually and fiscally to the growing churches.

Many years later, some of the families of St. Joseph’s parish raised funds for a third church building. What a co-operative effort it was, as the women and men made and sold perogies together to help pay down the church’s mortgage.
