Mary's Garden
As we celebrate the 25th Anniversary of Mary’s Garden, we invite you to consider giving a donation to assist with the rebuilding of this significant NCCW project. Many of us have enjoyed the presence of the garden during visits to the shrine while attending the Board of Directors meetings, during the March for Life and many other opportunities we have had to visit the shrine.
The campaign will begin on September 8th, 2024 (the Birth of Mary) and will conclude on May 31st (Feast of the Visitation). During this time, you will be able to send in your donation, call in your donation or donate through the NCCW website. We need to raise $80,000.00 to continue to support this significant NCCW project that has been with us for 25 years.
Thank you for your attention concerning this Campaign.
