Feeding Hungry Families for Thanksgiving

November 24, 2009 by Cross Catholic Blog

Though we are an international organization, Cross International Catholic Outreach occasionally finds the opportunity to reach out to those in need in our own community. This month we’ve partnered with St. Maurice Catholic Church to distribute 21,000-pounds of Thanksgiving food supplies to hundreds of the poor in South Florida.

Ethiopian Drought: 6.2 million lives at risk

October 29, 2009 by Cross Catholic Blog

One Meal Does Make a Difference

September 22, 2009 by Cross Catholic Blog

The United Nations World Food Programme recently reported that food aid to the world’s poor is at a 20-year low, yet the number of hungry people is at the highest level ever — 1 billion. Part of the problem is countries such as the U.S. have cut back their aid because of economic woes, leaving millions of poor without food.
