THE FULTON SHEEN LEGACY SOCIETY<br />

Like many <strong>of</strong> our donors today, Venerable Fulton Sheen’s commit<strong>men</strong>t to the missions sprung from a sincere passion for<br />

helping the world’s poor.<br />

As National Director <strong>of</strong> the Pontifical Mission Societies from 1950 to 1966, he raised more money for the poor than any<br />

other American Catholic. This effort included the donation <strong>of</strong> more than $10 million <strong>of</strong> his personal earnings.<br />

HIS LEGACY OF LOVE BEARS FRUIT IN THE MISSIONS EVEN TO THIS DAY.<br />

The Venerable Fulton Sheen Legacy Society is a community <strong>of</strong> donors, clergy, wo<strong>men</strong> and <strong>men</strong> religious, and friends who<br />

are preserving the missions for the future. Members <strong>of</strong> this prestigious group have included The Pontifical Mission Societies<br />

USA in their estate plans through cash gifts, bequests, or other planned gifts.<br />

We thank you sincerely — and someday, those whom you bless through your gift will also appreciate your generosity.<br />

My greatest love has always been<br />

the Missions <strong>of</strong> the Church.<br />

VENERABLE FULTON SHEEN
