Emergency Aid
When disasters strike, Cross Catholic Outreach is there. Our ministry provides lifesaving material aid and spiritual support where they are needed most by extending God’s love to the relief and recovery efforts of our partners on the ground.
Through your generous support, we can set our global shipping network in motion to begin transporting urgently needed food, water, medicine and other supplies to survivors as soon as possible.

Children and Families in Ukraine
Unite as Catholics to share our love.
The war in Ukraine is escalating dangerously. You can empower a network of courageous Catholic partners, including Cardinal Konrad Krajewski, who has braved gunfire while delivering relief supplies on behalf of Pope Francis. Help us rush food, water, sanitary kits, ambulances and other relief where it is needed most — along with temporary and long-term shelter and trauma therapy for refugees who have fled to neighboring Poland.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Cross Catholic Outreach Christmas Catalog makes it fun and easy to extend the joy of Christmas to the poor. Instead of being filled with retail items, the catalog contains meaningful gifts for some of the world’s most impoverished families. Some gifts are lifesaving items such as Food or Hygiene Products, while others are large projects such as Safe Homes or Clean Water. All gifts are sent on your behalf to grateful families in developing countries.
It’s easy to shop through the Cross Catholic Outreach Christmas Catalog. Simply browse through the categories and choose an item within your budget and close to your heart, such as Women-Owned Farms in Haiti or Powdered Milk for Children. Select and sponsor one or more of these gifts, and you’ll make a meaningful impact on the life of a needy child or family overseas. It’s that simple!
Blessing the poor happens year-round. Some gifts in our Christmas Catalog are sourced locally, so there is no need to worry about international shipping. For items that require shipping, Cross Catholic Outreach works with partners in every country we serve to ensure Christmas Catalog gifts are delivered in a timely fashion.

Donations from this campaign will be used to cover any expenditures for the Christmas Catalog 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.
