How Do I Donate?

"What we do for ourselves, dies with us. What we do for others, remains and is immortal."

Sir Thomas A’Kempis

Financial contributions from people like you keep our doors open at Catholic Charities.

It’s also good to know that 90 cents out of every dollar you donate goes directly to client services and only 10 cents is used for administrative costs. Nationally, an average of 17-24 cents of every dollar is used for administrative costs.

All gifts are tax-deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law.

There are several ways you
can make a donation:

DONATE NOW allows you to make a one-time donation using a credit card or make a recurring gift that allows Catholic Charities to charge a monthly donation to the credit card of your choice.

EFT (Electronic Funds Transfer) allows you to support the works of Catholic Charities through a regular monthly deduction from your checking or savings account. A record of your gift will appear on your monthly bank statement. While you still need to mail a voided check to Catholic Charities to complete this transaction, it’s really as easy as 1-2-3.

Donations can also be sent through the US Mail. Mail donation form and check payable to Catholic Charities, Diocese of Joliet to:
