Why are the Seminaries having a campaign?
The Seminaries of the Archdiocese of Denver are not unlike most higher education institutions across the country in that our tuition and fees do not cover the full cost of educating our men. We depend on private gifts and endowment income to ensure a top-notch education for our priests in training. A New Harvest is an opportunity for the Seminaries to partner with the faithful of the Archdiocese of Denver in advancing the future of the priesthood locally, nationally and globally. The campaign will raise funds for some capital needs but the largest portion will build an endowment for our Seminaries. These endowment funds are necessary to help us meet the ongoing and future financial needs of the seminaries and provide for continued growth of the priesthood.
