| | | Q. | Why can't parish goals for the Catholic Stewardship Appeal be based on a per capita amount?
| | | A. | Our parishes are all over the map in terms of per capita gifts, percent of participation, dollars raised and the socio-economic circumstances of their parishioners. All we can do is estimate what will likely be given based on historical giving patterns. The number of parishioners isn’t a “fairness” criterion, since some parishes have wealthier families or individuals than others. Thus a “per capita” assessment wouldn’t be any fairer than “giving history.”
