Parish Endowment

An endowment for St. Gerard Majella Parish was established in 2005. All contributions to this fund are deposited in a reserve account and only the interest may be withdrawn. Donations to this endowment fund are a good way to assure the future viability of our parish.

Together We Benefit (TWB)

The Together We Benefit is a fund raiser program for the parish. When you purchase normal day-to-day household and business items with the use of gift cards, a portion of your purchases are turned into profit for SGM. SGM purchases gift cards from grocers, (Shop N Save, Diebergs and Whole Foods), restaurants and retailers at a discounted rate.We sell them to you at face value. The difference between the discount rate and face value is SGM profit. Gift cards are available in the back of church after all Masses on Saturday evening and Sunday mornings, at the Parish Office (Monday through Friday 7 am to 4 pm) and through SGM School.

If you would like to volunteer selling them after weekend Masses or have any questions about this program, email us at TWB@sgmparish.org or contact:  The Parish Office, 314-965-3985
