During these challenging economic times we have all suffered and the demands on the resources of Catholic Charities are greater than ever. Catholic Charities helped almost 60,000 last year, some of whom are our neighbors.

Catholic Charities is like a rubber band – it’s stretched as far as it will go and it’s just about ready to snap.  We didn’t know where to turn until an “angel” offered to rescue us.  Our “angel” is an anonymous donor whose faith in the mission and works of Catholic Charities is an inspiration to us all.  He is willing to help, and wants us all to do the same.

For every dollar that you donate to the Angel Fund at Catholic Charities during the Lenten Season and through April 30, our “angel” will match it – dollar for dollar – up to $50,000.  Please be generous.  Be an angel to someone who will have no where else to turn if Catholic Charities doesn’t answer their cries, and their prayers.

WOULD YOU BE OUR ANGEL TOO?

Please send in a donation between February 17th and April 30th. Please make checks payable to: Catholic Charities Angel Fund, 203 N. Ottawa Street, Joliet IL 60432.  You can also click here to Donate Now and don't forget to designate "The Angel Fund" on the donation drop down screen or call Margaret at 815.724.1140 and she can process the transaction for you.

Bless you for your support of Catholic Charities.  Together we are doing God’s work – and changing and saving lives!  If you can’t send a gift, please remember the vulnerable and needy in your prayers.
