This weekend we kicked-off our parish campaign with an announcement made by Fr. Mike at all the Masses.  This announcement explains the why behind the needs our campaign seeks to address and the plans we’ve developed.

Our campaign, 2020 Vision, seeks to raise $2.4 million which will enable us to address some practical needs as we head into the 2020s. We are pressed to address a directive from the Village of Hoffman Estates to install a sprinkler system in our school building so that we remain compliant with the village’s ordinances. (The building is also used for Religious Education, our GIFT Program for those with special needs, Scouting, and for different social gatherings.) We also have begun an initiative that will bring technology into the hands of our school children to keep up with the latest trends in education. 
 
We are also planning some modest updating and improvements to two other very used meeting places on our campus:   the lower level of the church and parish ministry center.  And, along with every other parish in the Archdiocese, we are participating in the Archdiocesan “To Teach Who Christ Is” campaign, which benefits those receiving a Catholic education—both in Catholic Schools and in Religious Education Programs.
 
As you can see, we have a tremendous committee of parishioners who are serving as the leaders for our campaign. We offer them a big thank you for their ongoing work to bring our campaign to a successful conclusion.

Some Questions & Answers Q.  Who will be asked to support this campaign? A. Each individual or household in the parish will be personally invited to prayerfully consider a gift to the 2020 Vision campaign.   Q. When will the campaign start? A. Our campaign is currently underway. To allow us to complete the active phase of our campaign by the end of September 2018, when one of our parishioners on the leadership team approaches you, please consider and make your pledge at that time or shortly afterward. We also ask you to consider serving as a campaign volunteer, so we can accomplish our goal of personally contacting all      St. Hubert families.   Q. Why emphasize personal visits or personal contact? A. Home visits emphasize the personal nature of giving, allow campaign volunteer visitors to give potential donors a thorough presentation of the campaign case, and offer potential donors the opportunity to ask questions. In addition, personal visits or personal contacts place a greater emphasis on stewardship, allowing a volunteer to share his/her own faith experience and campaign participation.
