Catholics in the Washington
archdiocese last month were asked
to contribute $4,000 to the ma
tional Bishops Fund for Victims
of War. This is one of six special
charitable collections taken up in
Catholic churches each year,
which raise an estimated $50, 900.
Funds for support of the church
itself are in addition to this.
Indicative of the scope of church
giving is a figure provided by
the Washington Federation of
Churches Zone of the % fund
raising agencies). Eighty per cent
of the white Protestant churches
of Washington reported spending
total of more than $4.6 million
in their budgets last year, includ-
ing relief, missionary and social
work. A total of $1.022.150 was
raised solely for building purposes.
Also apart from the usual public
fund drives are special fund efforts
by Chest agencies themselves. A
number of them resort to mem
bership" campaigns and benefits
to make up for shortages in the
Chest budget. The total raised is
an estimated 100000 annually.
