Cardinal Timothy Michael Dolan of the Archdiocese of New York and Archbishop José H. Gomez of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles are enthusiastically rooting for their home team in the bicoastal national baseball championship series and have even placed a friendly wager to benefit Catholic school students in their respective Archdioceses.
Catholics and all people of goodwill are encouraged to get involved in this friendly exchange. Donations are being accepted to benefit John Cardinal O’Connor School in New York and the Catholic Education Foundation of Los Angeles (CEF).
The “winning” archdiocese will receive 60% of the total fund and the other archdiocese will receive 40% of the total fund to benefit the school and the foundation. All proceeds collected will go directly to the school and CEF.
