Parishes and Schools Share the Love!

This spring, Catholic Charities has been blessed once again by the enthusiastic support of the many parishes of the Archdiocese of New Orleans in the 2015 Second Collection for Catholic Charities. The collection was held at Masses the weekend of February 28 and March 1. As of Monday, April 20, we have received the gifts of 92 parishes that have responded to the call to assist the vulnerable and needy!

In addition, 34 Catholic schools participated in Show Your Heart Day this year - dollar by dollar, our students have shown that they have really taken the mission of Catholic Charities to heart!

We are still receiving funds from our parishes and will keep you updated on the final total! THANK YOU to each and every person who gave in this year’s Second Collection. We could not continue serving so many without the support and assistance of the many caring and giving people like you!
