However much it will cost to build the Cathedral, along with its underground parking component, money will have to be raised. The Cathedral has approximately $5 million, set aside specifically for this purpose.  The money represents a bequest by the late Anne and Angelo Mountanos, who left the money, not to the Cathedral, but to the Cathedral Building Fund, expressly for the purpose of building the church. The rest of the money needed to build will have to be raised. Towards this end, the Parish Council is putting together a Capital Campaign Committee. The committee will come up with a fund raising plan, which will be put to the Parish Assembly for its consideration and approval and, then, will implement the plan, i.e. raise the additional money needed to build.  If you would like to assist the Parish by serving on the Capital Campaign Committee, you are invited to speak with Father Stephen, by calling 415 864-8000, or by e mail, dean@annunciation.org, This undertaking is challenging and historical at the same time, as it represents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to build a Greek Orthodox house of faith, to serve the present generation of faithful, as well as those generations to come.
