Catholic Charities Month 2025

Catholic Charities Month: August 2025

While summer is a time of rest and recreation for many, it can be especially difficult for those living in poverty. At Catholic Charities, Diocese of Joliet, we are seeing a growing demand for essential services.

Without air conditioning, extreme heat can pose serious health risks. Rising food and housing costs are pushing already struggling families closer to crisis. Many are making impossible choices between rent, food, and basic necessities.

Your donation helps provide food, shelter, and other critical support to the most vulnerable in our community. Every gift matters.

Please consider giving in honor of Catholic Charities Month and helping those who need it most.

Thank you for supporting those in need. Wishing you a safe and peaceful summer.
