Delivering food, shelter, and hope to the poorest of the poor
Cross Catholic Outreach
Teresa Tomeo interviewed Jim Cavnar, president of Cross Catholic Outreach about the Box of Joy ministry and its effort to bring Christmas joy and the story of Jesus to children in developing countries such as Guatemala, Haiti, El Salvador, The Dominion Republic, Grenada, Honduras and Nicaragua.
Cavnar and Tomeo explained that the 2021 Box of Joy outreach kicks off in September, and groups deliver gifts to their local drop-off centers during Box of Joy Week, Nov. 6-14. To learn more on how to engage in reaching needy children through Box of Joy, please visit boxofjoy.org.

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.
