National Religious Retirement Office 2019 Annual Report Supplement 1

From the Executive Director

Dear Friends,

It is a privilege to share this supplement to the National Religious Retirement Office

(NRRO) annual report. These pages detail the far-reaching impact of donations

to the Retirement Fund for Religious collection. For highlights from 2019 and

information on contributions, see the annual report at retiredreligious.org.*

Although the collection has helped numerous religious communities transform

their retirement-funding deficits into manageable concerns, many others continue

to struggle. Of the communities providing data to the NRRO, the largest single

grouping of congregations has only 20 percent or less of the funds needed for

retirement (see page at left).

Yet we are encouraged that the next largest grouping is approaching adequate

funding. By providing monetary aid along with educational resources, the Retirement

Fund for Religious assists these and all eligible communities to reduce their costs,

enhance their care, and plan for long-term needs.

Especially during these difficult days of Covid-19, we are thankful for the generosity

that makes this assistance possible and for all who continue to support senior

religious and their communities. We pray that God will watch over you and your

loved ones.

With gratitude,

Sister Stephanie Still, PBVM

Executive Director

Total Direct Care Assistance 341 Distributions $25,000,000.10

An additional 190 religious institutes submitted demographic and financial data to the NRRO. Some provided information but did not request financial assistance. Others applied but did not receive funding because they are adequately funded per the NRRO distribution calculation. Visit retiredreligious.org/about-us/annual-report to view a PDF listing of these institutes.


Planning and Implementation AssistancePlanning and Implementation Assistance is a comprehensive program to help religious communities increase their long-term ability to provide for senior members. A core planning team from each participating congregation works with two NRRO-trained consultants to identify retirement-funding challenges and develop strategies to address the deficits. Communities may request funds for both the planning and the implementation phases.

The following congregations entered the program in 2019. Some have completed the process, and others continue to work with NRRO staff and consultants to refine their plans. Funds allocated but not disbursed in 2019 will be available for distribution in 2020.

Management and Continuing Education AssistanceIn 2019, $275,014.74 was distributed in Management and Continuing Education Assistance. Religious communities may apply for distributions of up to $5,000 per calendar year to underwrite financial or retirement-related education and/or the acquisition of basic management tools.
