THE CHALLENGE
In 23 years, St. Clare Parish blossomed from a small group worshipping in a school gym into a thriving community on a beautiful campus in Roseville, California. With new parishioners joining each week, the diverse St. Clare community experienced all-too-familiar growing pains. The parking facilities were inadequate for the size of the parish, leading to expensive shuttle rentals for Christmas and Easter services, as well as traffic jams before and after Mass. Additionally, the community was eager to pay down debt from its recent campus expansion and fulfill its parish goal toward the Diocese of Sacramento’s campaign.
THE VISION
- Improve parking facilities and traffic flow
- Reduce the parish’s debt
- Meet the parish’s obligation to the diocesan campaign
- Construct a meditation rose garden and outdoor Stations of the Cross
- Strengthen the parish’s programs and ministries
THE SOLUTION
Parish leaders embraced the population growth at St. Clare and positioned the parish for success by meeting the needs head-on. St. Clare partnered with the Steier Group and designed a campaign that allowed St. Clare’s diverse community to expand their parking facilities, pay down their debt and fulfill their obligation to the diocesan campaign. The Steier Group designed a campaign that exceeded its goal, inspired support from every demographic group and promoted ongoing Stewardship at the parish.
“In our previous fundraising campaign with another company, their method was ineffective and we did not reach out goal because of low participation. We decided to hire the Steier Group and the difference was huge.”
Gene and Kate Tiongson, Honorary Chairs, St. Clare
