Episcopal Relief & Development Exceeds 75th Anniversary Goals

From All Africa-

Thanks to the generous support and coordinated efforts of thousands of Episcopalians and friends, Episcopal Relief & Development's 75th Anniversary Celebration exceeded its goals for fundraising and engagement throughout the Church and beyond. During the 75-week celebration, the organization raised $7.94 million [USD, approximately £5.65 million GBP] as part of a special campaign, and connected with supporters through live events, webinars, stories and a traveling photo exhibition.

"After 75 years of serving millions of people around the world, Episcopal Relief & Development and our faithful supporters had much to celebrate - and what a celebration it was!" said Neel Lane, chair of Episcopal Relief & Development's Board of Directors. "On behalf of our board and staff, thank you to our excellent Honorary and Steering Committees, and to all who pledged themselves this past year and a half toward our shared mission of healing a hurting world."
