ShareLife 2012
Working Wonders For Young People They stuck by me so many times. They could have just closed the doors and said, Youre too much to handle. I had a bad attitude. I didnt want to follow the rules. I had no structure. But they stuck by me and when I had my son in the hospital, they were there to make sure that CAS was on my side and did not take my son. My son saved me. If he wasnt here, I dont think I would be here either." ShareLife agencies provided counselling, support and community education to more than 8,300 young people last year offering personal and group counselling to 1,674 pregnant youth and young mothers who turned to them for help. The ShareLife Community Challenge Have your Campaign Gift Matched! Through the ShareLife Community Challenge, all new and increased gifts to the 2012 ShareLife campaign will be matched! A generous parishioner in the Archdiocese has agreed to match up to $650,000 in new and increased contributions to the campaign. Together, as a Catholic community, we have an opportunity to respond to this challenge and make a significant impact on the work of our agencies. Make a sacrificial gift to the campaign today You Can Work Wonders!
