The Diocesan Support Appeal (DSA) provides annual funding to help carry out the Diocese’s mission: to “grow ever more perfectly into a community of praise, worship, and witness, and to become a leaven of service and sign of peace through love in the Piedmont and western North Carolina.” The DSA provides funding for over 50 ministries and programs.

Each parish is given a specific contribution target that it must meet annually. Any funds donated that exceed the target are returned to the parish.
