Undy Sunday

Most people take things like underwear for granted. At Catholic Charities, we have found that low-income families and seniors living on poverty-level incomes do not spend money on underwear and desperately need it.

Underwear is one of the most needed but least donated items. For families struggling to make ends meet, new underwear is often considered a luxury they cannot afford.

Your participation in Undy Sunday helps restore dignity and provides essential comfort to those who need it most in our community.
