   The Ash Wednesday collection and the Palm Sunday Brunch appeal are Catholic Social Service’s largest annual fundraisers. The funds from these two events are critical to insuring that CSS services and programs continue for those in need.   

   While the contributions to both of these events have been extremely generous, CSS has fallen short in meeting its annual fundraising goal and is asking for your continued support. If you would like to donate to either of these events, please mail your gift to Catholic Social Services, 918 Fifth Street, Rapid City, SD 57701. Your consideration is greatly appreciated.
