THANK YOU FOR YOUR GENEROSITY! Father Ron Cattany DONATE TO THE CATHEDRAL BASILICA important to Ed and the Routzon family that they also started two donor-advised funds with The Catholic Founda- tion to further their ability to feed the hungry and shelter the homeless. The family's gifts also include Catholic education assistance and school supply programs. "With our donor-directed funds, we get to guide how money gets distributed and being a Catholic, I prefer to work through a Catholic organization like The Catholic Foundation," Ed said. The donor-advised funds through the Catholic Founda- tion are useful tools for someone who is moved to the act of charity but may not yet know precisely where to make a donation. The Catholic Foundation provides knowledgeable staff to partner with Catholics who want to make inspired giving in a morally responsible way. "Our inspiration for our giving really comes from the cor- poral works of mercy and The Catholic Foundation has been an easy conduit for that mission," Ed said.
