Ways to donate to the Parish
Annual Appeal
Thank you to all who participate in St. Margaret Parish’s Annual Appeal for Catholic Ministries. When you give to the Annual Appeal, you support us here at St. Margaret while also strengthening ministries that serve our neighbors throughout our entire Archdiocese. If you have yet to make a pledge or gift to the Annual Appeal for Catholic Ministries, please do so by completing and mailing your postage-paid in-pew envelope to the Archdiocese of Baltimore, or give online at https://www.archbalt.org/appeal/give/.
Thank you for your prayers and support!

Matching Gifts

Bequests
The easiest way to make a gift is to include a simple bequest in your Will. If you already have a Will, a codicil allows for a new provision to be added easily.
