Monthly Grant
December
Tithe:
Retirement Fund for Religious
DID YOU KNOW?
Religious
receive approximately 1/3 the Social
Security benefit of the average U.S.
beneficiary. And more than 32,000 women
religious and more than 5,200 men
religious are past age 70, and their
total costs of living exceeds $925
million annually.
The average
Catholic family spends more than $12 each
year on cookies, more than $21 on potato
chips, more than $29 on take-out care,
and just a little more than $1 per adult
on the Retirement Fund for Religious.
Less than
6% of donations are used for
administration and promotional costs.
