Put Your Faith Into Action Today!
When you support our 2022 Annual Fund Drive, you’ll help vulnerable children and families across the globe. Your generosity enables us to respond without hesitation to urgent needs, such as providing emergency relief supplies to refugees fleeing the war on Ukraine. The annual drive also helps us more effectively feed the hungry, bring clean water to the thirsty, build homes, educate at-risk children, and carry out many other urgent projects around the globe. Together, we can bring Christ’s hope to those who need it most.
Please give generously to support our missions of mercy this year.
Vatican Cardinal Shares Pope’s Blessing for Ukraine Aid
Pope Francis has imparted a special Apostolic Blessing for Cross Catholic Outreach and its supporters in recognition of the ministry’s support of Ukraine’s children and families.
In a letter from the Vatican, Cardinal Krajewski wrote:
“I carry with this venerable gift the thanks of Pope Francis himself for this concrete support of his pastoral initiative, and [the Holy Father] imparts to your ministry a special Apostolic Blessing for grace and divine consolation that from his heart he imparts to you and all the staff of Cross Catholic Outreach.”
Your support will extend the Holy Father’s blessing as we work together to lift up families around the world.
Fruits of Your Faith in Action
Immediate relief and long-term change happen thanks to YOU!
Nutritious Food
One way you feed the hungry is by helping Cross Catholic Outreach ship Vitafood to countries in the developing world. It’s nutritious, delicious and cost-effective — and it’s providing millions of meals each year. Your gift to the Annual Fund Drive helps us deliver even more.
Disaster Relief
When a massive earthquake rocked Haiti in August 2021, more than 100,000 homes, schools, health care facilities and churches were damaged or destroyed. With the backing of caring supporters, we responded quickly with a three-stage relief plan.
Livesaving Water
Supporters like you are playing a critical role in ending the water crisis afflicting poor, rural communities across southern Africa. Just this year, we built 65 life-sustaining wells to supply safe water: four in Ghana, six in Malawi and 55 in Zambia!
Make a Global Impact
When you give to Cross Catholic Outreach, you share hope where it’s needed most. Together, we empower ministry partners in developing countries to make a lasting difference in the lives of the poor — all for the glory of God!

Proceeds from this campaign will be used to cover any expenditures incurred through June 30, 2023, the close of our ministry’s fiscal year. In the event that more funds are raised than needed to fully fund the project, the excess funds, if any, will be used to meet the most urgent needs of the ministry.
