Catholics under 45—those who give most consistently—also express the strongest concern about how their donations are used, with many worrying their gifts could go toward legal fees or abuse settlements. Trust in stewardship begins with transparency. bit.ly/3WA1Iej

YA Catholics are both highly-engaged and think of leaving the Church. Engaged today doesn't mean engaged tomorrow. To keep young leaders active, the Church must create welcoming spaces and build transparent, accountable structures.
