A bold investment in Algoma’s future

$4 000 000
What are we trying to do?
This campaign is intended to bring the Anne Germond Legacy Fund to about $4 million, so that it generates an interest income to support the office of the Bishop of Algoma.
The Office of the Bishop includes the Bishop’s stipend, housing, travel & benefits; administrative and/or executive support; and office space, telephone, internet, computer.
Once the fund reaches $4 million, $200,000 interest income would be generated annually at a 5% interest rate.
Our Vision
The Anne Germond Legacy Fund is a bold investment in Algoma’s future. It ensures our diocese will always be led by a local Bishop—one with the time and resources to walk alongside congregations, visit deaneries, and strengthen the ties that bind our faith community.
This fund isn’t just about sustaining leadership; it’s about empowering it. By providing essential administrative and executive support, the Bishop’s office will be equipped to guide parishes through change, foster innovation, and create new opportunities for collaboration.
Over time, the Legacy Fund will also ease the financial burden on parishes, reducing reliance on apportionment and creating a more sustainable future for ministry in Algoma.
