Fight Poverty in Asian Countries

Asia is a continent of both great prosperity and great poverty. Asian poverty is largely concentrated in South Asia, where education, clean water and health care are often in short supply. Poverty in Asia can be linked to overcrowded cities, low annual incomes, hunger, discrimination against ethnic minorities, lack of access to education and other factors of inequality. Asia and the Pacific is also the world’s most disaster-prone region in the world, accounting for nearly half of all natural disasters each year. Access to the Catholic sacraments varies widely country to country. For example, in the Philippines, 4 out of 5 people are Catholic, but in other countries, the open expression of religion is banned.

Cross Catholic Outreach partners with priests, sisters, church-based ministries and lay organizations to bring hope to the people of Asia. In some places, our mission activities are one of the few ways families are exposed to Christ’s love and compassion. Please help us pursue our critical poverty relief missions in Asia through locally focused feeding programshousing projectseducation initiatives and spiritual outreach.

Financial Accountability

At Cross Catholic, we meticulously honor the intent of our donors. All proceeds are restricted for the specific project for which they are raised. In that rare event that more funds are received than are required for a specific project, the additional funds will be used to meet the most urgent needs.

Fundraising & Administrative Expenses 5.82%
More than 94 percent of all organizational expenses, including donated goods, went directly to programs that help the poor.
Audited Financials FY2022

Proceeds from this campaign will be used to cover any expenditures 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.
