Ways to Engage
Without you, Catholic Charities can’t accomplish our mission of giving help, hope and hospitality!
Are you ready to transform Kansas?
This important work of transforming our community by dispensing hope and opportunity is made possible through the support of our generous donors and dedicated volunteers. Last year, we provided over 1/2 million services to neighbors in need.
Defeating poverty and transforming communities can sound like a daunting task, but with help from volunteers and donors like you, our 20+ programs can become even more effective.
