The work of Catholic Charities to reduce poverty and serve those in need is the story of individuals and communities coming together to serve more than 16 million people this past year. These efforts made a life-changing difference in the lives of clients across the U.S. and in the territories.
Summary
In 2024, the 168 agencies that make up the Catholic Charities network served more than 28 million meals to hungry men, women and children; provided emergency housing services to more than 295,000 people; and responded to 52 natural and manmade disasters – an average of one a week.
These efforts are reflected in the stories of people like Monique, who found permanent housing and employment assistance after leaving an unhealthy relationship; Todd, who at age 66, is having his first taste of semi-independent living in a group home for men with disabilities; and Koty and Jennifer who, with their two children, will finally be moving into a safe, permanent home after two hurricanes rendered their trailer uninhabitable.
Your generous support of Catholic Charities programs made these stories and so many more like them possible. We invite you now to learn more about the difference you made while helping us fulfill the Gospel mandate to care for the least of our sisters and brothers. Thank you.
