received assistance from
our food pantries
are served by our programs within the Diocese, which have assisted over half a million people since Catholic Charities opened in 1965
were provided during our annual Community Christmas initiative, along with assisting families to register with Toys for Tots.
Today too, amid so much darkness, we need to see the light of hope,
and to be the men and women who bring hope to others.
