The funds received during the Annual Catholic Charities Appeal support the many charitable ministries and programs sponsored by the Fall River Diocese. Throughout the year these programs and ministries touch the lives of tens of thousands of persons; some young, others old; some sick in body, others in spirit; some broken, others confused with no where to turn.
In 2010 the Diocese can look back on the nearly seven decades that Catholic Charities has reached out compassionately, attempting to heal the pain of those looking to us for assistance. Without regard to race, creed, nationality, gender, or economic status, the many ministries supported by this annual fund-raising effort reach out to those in need, motivated by God's call “to love one another”.
The nearly 35,000 parishioners who contributed to last year's Appeal knew full well that the only way to lessen the mental, emotional, and physical suffering of those in need, to show them we CARE and to give them HOPE, is by SHARING.
