In addition to supporting Catholic Charities, Appeal 2023 also benefits the Fund for the Faith. Established in 1937 by Bishop John Duffy out of concern for those in need of spiritual comfort due to hardships of the Great Depression, the Fund for the Faith continues to provide spiritual nourishment throughout our Diocese today. Proceeds provide ministry support services that are instrumental to the vitality of our faith experience and enable us to more effectively spread the Gospel message of Christ’s love. Support Catholic Charities and the Fund for the Faith by visiting www.ccwny.org/donate or text GIVEHOPE23 to 44321 today. Catholic Charities: Hope for all seasons.
