2017-18 Annual Report– Catholic Diocese of Pueblo Foundation
Notes from the Executive Director
Dear Friends of the Catholic Foundation:
Thanks to you, this past year was a wonderful year for many in the Diocese of Pueblo! Please allow
me to highlight our key successes.
Parish Visits
Last year, Diana Maal, our Development Coordinator, made visits to various parishes in Grand Junction,
Durango, Alamosa and Trinidad. The purpose of her visits was to meet parishioners and introduce them to
the Catholic Foundation’s history, mission, and grants program. Diana’s presentations emphasized the
ministry of charitable giving, and she was warmly received at each parish.
Fundraising Dinner in Alamosa
The Catholic Foundation hosted a dinner at the Bistro Rialto in Alamosa on October 21, 2017 with Bishop
Stephen J. Berg as our special guest. This was the first time for a Catholic Foundation event in the San Luis
Valley, with guests coming together from Alamosa, Capulin, Center, Hooper, La Jara and Monte Vista for
dinner and fellowship.
Catholic Education Campaign
The Catholic Foundation held its first-ever
Catholic Schools Week Campaign to promote the
value of Catholic education, which took place
January 29 – February 2, 2018. This Campaign
provided a great opportunity for individuals to
give to their local Catholic school or to donate to
the Catholic Foundation. Thanks to those who
donated, the Campaign raised nearly $11,000 for
Catholic education.
Grant Awards 2018
The Catholic Foundation is pleased to announce its grant awards for 2018. This year the Catholic
Foundation awarded organizations and Catholic schools just over $120,000 for tuition assistance, and for
parish, mission and program assistance. Additionally, nineteen organizations received $35,500 in
humanitarian grant awards from the Msgr. Delaney Humanitarian Fund to help those who are in most need.
For a complete listing of grant recipients please visit our website at www.CatholicFoundationDOP.org.
The Catholic Foundation is thankful for all of you, our faithful donors, who make our programs
possible. On behalf of Bishop Stephen J. Berg and the Board of Directors, thank you in advance for your
continued support in the coming year. May we kindly ask that you be as generous as possible with a gift to
support our work at this time. Please visit our secure website at www.CatholicFoundationDOP.org and click
on “Donate.”
Yours in Christ,
Steven S. Chargin
Executive Director
In the spirit of Hope in the Gospel, and to continue
the work of Jesus Christ, the Catholic Diocese of
Pueblo Foundation promotes charitable giving,
manages entrusted resources and disburses gifts
throughout the Diocese.
2017-18 Annual Report– Catholic Diocese of Pueblo Foundation
Honoring Bishop Arthur N. Tafoya
By Steven Chargin, Executive Director
Perhaps one of the most enduring aspects of Bishop Arthur Tafoya’s
legacy will be the creation of the Catholic Diocese of Pueblo Foundation.
As presently organized, Bishop Tafoya established the Catholic Foundation in 1995, and by the grace of God
it has grown over the years in many and varied ways.
Putting his love and care for the diocese into action, Bishop Tafoya wanted to be sure that there would
always be a source of grant funds for all parishes, missions and other Catholic groups, particularly those in
outlying areas where financial and material resources were scarce. By creating a fruitful partnership with so
many generous donors over the years, the Catholic Foundation was able to help repair churches and schools,
provide funding for religious education materials, assist immigrants, and offer our youth the opportunity to
grow in their faith through numerous conferences and events. Little did Bishop Tafoya know that the seeds
of faith he planted would turn into over Two Million Dollars in grant awards for these and many other
programs.
To honor Bishop Tafoya’s many years of dedication and service to the Catholic Foundation, we are proud to
announce that our current legacy society will now be known as The Bishop Arthur N. Tafoya Legacy Society.
It is our hope and prayer that many of the faithful will be inspired to leave a planned gift to the Catholic
Foundation-just as Bishop Tafoya did. Whether by a Will, Trust or other means, a planned gift costs nothing
during a person’s lifetime, but the benefits will last well beyond. Please take the opportunity to honor Bishop
Tafoya by becoming a member of his Legacy Society today. The Catholic Foundation can help you with
just about any type of planned gift, so please contact us and we will be happy to help you start planning your
Catholic legacy.
On behalf of all our Board of Directors, Executive Directors, staff and grant recipients, past and present, the
Catholic Foundation will forever be grateful for Bishop Tafoya’s inspired leadership and vision. May he rest
in God’s holy peace.
March 2, 1933– March 24, 2018

Bishop Arthur N. Tafoya Legacy Society
We wish to recognize those individuals, past and present,
who have designated the Catholic Foundation as a
beneficiary of a legacy gift in a Will, Trust, Annuity or other
planned giving instrument.
With these simple planned gifts, members of the Bishop
Tafoya Legacy Society members will help build our mission
today and tomorrow.
Please honor Bishop Tafoya by becoming a member of his
Legacy Society today.
