Catholic Campaign for Human Development-CCHD

Please respond to Pope Francis’ call for the World Day of the Poor the weekend of November 16-17, 2024.  

 

Please be generous in the collection for the Catholic Campaign for Human Development (CCHD). In the US, more than 46 million people live in poverty. With this collection you support programs that address the causes of poverty by work together respond to others in need and overcome the complex challenges of poverty across the United States.

 

Please remember that 25% of the CCHD collection in our diocese stays in Hawaii to extend our hands and arms to others in need here. CCHD funds donated from our parishes have contributed to a variety of effective community efforts including helping houseless survivors of natural disasters rebuild their lives, assisting formerly incarcerated or homeless women with transitional housing and job training, and supporting non-profit organizations helping low-income families build and own affordable housing.

 

Please prayerfully consider Bishop Larry Silva’s call to give generously to the CCHD collection as a way of witnessing to Jesus.
