PARISH FINANCIAL NOTES AND UPDATES

Special Collections:
100% of the proceeds from special collections—such as ShareLife, Canadian Missions, Mission Co-op, and others—are forwarded directly to the Archdiocese of Toronto.

Diocesan Assessment:
As the owner of all parishes, the Archdiocese of Toronto receives 15% of all regular collections, known as the Diocesan Assessment, which is paid twice a year (June and December). 

Assessment Exemptions:
The parish may apply for exemptions from the Diocesan Assessment. Once approved, 100% of the collected funds remain in the parish and are used strictly for their intended purposes. To date, the following collections are exempt from assessment:

  • Fundraising activities
  • Building Fund
  • Safety Grill Appeal

This means every dollar donated to these initiatives stays within the parish to support our local needs.
