Introducing Partners in Hope!
This June, Catholic Charities is excited to launch a new program to celebrate and recognize people who consistently answer the call of service through a monthly gift. We’d like to invite you to join our Partners in Hope - a group of like-minded, extraordinary individuals who help those who struggle every day to build a better life through dedicated support each month.

Members of Partners in Hope demonstrate a consistent commitment to our community through action that ensures their gift to Catholic Charities will have a maximum impact on those who need it most! Partners in Hope support the many people served by Catholic Charities by making a monthly gift. It’s easy to do and at each giving level, there are special benefits!

Prayer for Protection Against Storms and Hurricanes

Our Father in Heaven, through the intercession of Our Lady of Prompt Succor, spare us during this hurricane season from all harm.

Protect us and our homes from all disasters of nature.

Students Send a Shower of Support for ACCESS Babies!

The 5th -7th graders at St. Philip Neri School completed a 9-month spiritual adoption program under the guidance of religion teacher Suzanne Patin. At the conclusion, the classes held a baby shower to celebrate their babies' "birthday.” Baby items collected were donated to the moms and babies served by ACCESS Pregnancy. Thank you to St. Philip Neri students for sharing the blessings with our ACCESS moms and babies! Pictured are St. Philip 7th grade students: Gabriel Wright, Wyatt Martin, Celeste Shonberg and Madison Blitch with Sr. Marjorie Hebert at the ACCESS Pregnancy and St. Vincent Maternity Clinic offices in Metairie.
