Operating Fund
At the Catholic Center the majority of the Operating Budget is funded by donations from generous supporters. As you can imagine it isn't "cheap" to provide a warm and welcoming home for our students. In addition to first meeting the cost of rent and utilities for our current center, we must find the funds to provide programming that includes education, socials and much more.
If you would like to make a one time donation to help cover these expenses please send a check made payable to "Campus Catholics at UWG" to P.O. Box 172, Carrollton GA 30112 or click on this LINK to donate electronically.
