The National Shrine has expanded over the past four
decades and has provided spiritual support to
countless pilgrims and visitors. In order to
accommodate pilgrims, the Shrine has expanded
services and improved greatly over the years.

Unfortunately the financial obligations have
outweighed the income. Repairs, maintenance and
expansion projects have always consumed the meager
finances.

In order to insure the future of the Shrine a Perpetual
Endowment Fund has been established.

The purpose of this fund is to ensure the financial
stability of the National Shrine of Our Lady of
Lebanon and to allow for capital expenditures for
maintenance, repair and expansion of the Shrine.

The Particulars of the Fund

Only the income from the fund can be used as
the principal will remain untouched.

The minimum donation to the fund is $50.00

Donations can be given in memory or as a gift.

All names will be entered into a Perpetual
Endowment Fund book which will be kept
close to the altar in either the Prince of Peace
Chapel or the Tower Chapel.

All donors, living and deceased, will be
remembered daily at the Divine Liturgy,
(Perpetual Remembrance)

Donations are welcome by individuals,
organizations or from estates and wills.
