The Paris diocese has started a new campaign to raise funds for the upcoming visit of Pope Leo XIV to France, which is expected to cost a total of 27 million euros. The campaign aims to secure the remaining 10 million euros needed to cover the expenses associated with the papal visit. Pope Leo XIV's visit is a significant event for the Catholic community in France, drawing large crowds and requiring extensive logistical support. The diocese has been working closely with various organizations and individuals to ensure the event is well-organized and accessible to the public. The appeal includes a range of fundraising activities, from community events and charity drives to online donations. Local parishes and Catholic institutions are also participating, encouraging their members to contribute to the cause. The diocese has emphasized that the funds will be used for essential aspects of the visit, including security, transportation, and hospitality for the Pope and his entourage. They have assured the public that all contributions will be transparently accounted for and used solely for the purpose of the papal visit.
