Elderly Care Programs
The World Health Organization predicts that the number of people over the age of 65 will reach 1.5 billion by 2050, and the greatest increases in this population will be in developing countries. Despite persistent disease threats in the developing world, older adults are living longer and desperately in need of physical, material, and spiritual support from their communities and the Catholic Church.
Through our ministry partners overseas, Cross Catholic Outreach helps care for the poorest of the poor in Dioceses around the world in the name of Jesus Christ. With your generous help, we are able to address the nutritional, medical, and hygiene needs of senior citizens, as well as provide opportunities for spiritual growth, literacy, creativity, and cultural engagement to enrich the lives of beloved elders around the world.
Elderly Care Programs
When you select an aid project, your donation to that project will be used to cover any expenditures for the project 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.
