The Cornerstone Society

You are here:

When you make gifts or pledges totaling $1,000 or more to the annual Catholic Appeal and/or the Serving the Shepherds Fund within an Appeal year, you are recognized as a member of The Cornerstone Society. Through their loving support, society members provide the Diocese of Fall River with much-needed funds to advance our mission of carrying out the corporal and spiritual works of mercy for all those in need.
Members of The Cornerstone Society take a leadership role in upholding all of our important ministries, programs, and apostolates while embodying the great virtues the New Testament calls for in all Christians: faith, hope, and love. They receive a variety of offerings to welcome them into a circle of supporters for whom we are incredibly grateful:
