As part of our ongoing commitment to support healing and reconciliation, the Archdiocese of Toronto has made a commitment to provide funds in support of programs and initiatives that respond to the various needs that exist among Indigenous Peoples both locally and throughout the country. The Indigenous Healing & Reconciliation fund is part of a national effort announced by the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops. To date, the fund has raised more than 50% of its $30 million target as pledged by the Canadian bishops and dioceses throughout Canada. The archdiocese has allocated $2.7 million of its $6 million pledge to charitable initiatives supporting healing and reconciliation.
The collection on the weekend of October 5/6 provides an opportunity for the faithful to contribute to this important initiative.
