| Our Parish Partners Catholic Charities' mission is rooted in the belief that every person is made in the image of God and as such, has a fundamental right to basic necessities — food, clothing, housing, education, employment and health care.
But our work cannot be done alone.
Our commitment to help our neighbors in need calls for partnerships with you and your faith community. Together, we can improve the lives of those in need.
A Resource for Parishes
With advocacy and volunteer opportunities and interactive presentations about poverty, Catholic Charities can help your parish put its faith into action.
Our two-fold mission serves those most in need while calling for justice in the community. All of our work is rooted in Catholic Social Teaching. Catholic Charities is a separate entity from the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis, which provides funding for 5% of Catholic Charities' $34 million operating budget.
For more information on how your parish can partner with Catholic Charities, contact Lynn Varco, Director of the Annual Fund and Parish Outreach, at 612-664-8781 or lvarco@ccspm.org.
