and the corresponding finances. Once completed, the Regnum Christi Calgary Association (RCCA) board and the Regnum Christi Director’s (RCD) Council approved it. Our budget is critical to providing for the various needs of and investments in our locality. For example, it supports the programs and events within each section. It also includes dedicated funds to develop our leaders, providing financial support for them to attend the territory’s conferences and other educational offerings. Our budget also pays for all the administrative aspects of running our locality, such as bank fees and insurance. We also provide significant ongoing financial support to our Legionaries here in Calgary. We need to raise $70,000 this year to balance our budget. In order to achieve this, we ask each member to donate monthly to RCCA. We hope each member will give $100 monthly. Some give much more - others less, but each one is highly encouraged to participate by giving. Gifts are tax-deductible, so essentially, a $100 monthly gift will be about $50 after tax. We have many members who are not giving at this time. This is likely because they haven't been asked as I am doing here now, or perhaps they do not yet understand the details I mentioned above regarding why donations are needed and how they are spent. If you are not yet giving, I sincerely ask you to please start now. Giving is important, and we make it as easy as possible. Just click on this LINK to start your monthly donations. If you are intentionally not giving because you have questions or concerns, please call me. I want to hear your concerns. I want every member to feel good about giving to our locality.
