Together in Mission is an annual appeal conducted by the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, California. It is not your typical annual appeal — it is a collaborative effort that brings together the Catholic community, encouraging one another to sustain vital ministries and services in underprivileged parishes and schools — all in the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ.
For 30 years, Together in Mission has been led by dedicated clergy, administrators, and lay leaders. It was established in response to the growing needs of local parishes and schools, especially in economically disadvantaged areas. Recognizing that some communities faced financial challenges that hindered their ability to carry out essential ministries and education programs, the Archdiocese initiated the Together in Mission campaign to foster unity and shared responsibility among the faithful so that struggling faith communities throughout our five regions have flourished.
Every year, Together in Mission strives to symbolize hope and solidarity within the archdiocese. The annual appeal is launched annually in February, inviting parishioners and all donors alike to contribute according to their means, ensuring no community, parish, or family is left behind. Together in Mission is the only Archdiocese Annual Appeal with a known and respected brand in the United States.
We are part of the Development Office within the Archdiocese of Los Angeles. The Together in Mission team’s main objective is to successfully manage the annual appeal every year for struggling parishes and schools. The team also educates, trains and assists all parishes with their Together in Mission launch so that they can attain their Together in Mission fundraising goals.
