Capital campaign began with target goal of $4,000,000 in pledges. The 4 million target was simply the calculation of annual offertory times a factor. Due to the size of the parish, the per capita income of the majority of families registered at St. Joseph, and the large amount of “loose change” donors it was also felt that a target of 5 million was achievable. Raising pledges of half the cost would permit construction to begin.
