Delivering food, shelter, and hope to the poorest of the poor
Our Projects Officer to Africa, Tara McKinney, just returned from visiting our Cross Catholic partners in Ethiopia. Ethiopia is one of the poorest countries in the world and more than 70 percent of children under 7 have never had the opportunity to attend school. Thankfully, our support of Cholle Catholic Kindergarten is providing a solid, Catholic education to 126 children from the nation’s most destitute families.
Our mission is to mobilize the global Catholic Church to transform the poor and their communities materially and spiritually for the glory of Jesus Christ. Your gift empowers us to serve the poorest of the poor by channeling life-changing aid through an international network of dioceses, parishes and Catholic missionaries. This cost-effective approach helps break the cycle of poverty and advance Catholic evangelization.
