The mission of Catholic Charities is building a just and compassionate society, rooted in the dignity of all people. Founded in 1903, Catholic Charities serves low-income families and individuals, regardless of religion, race, ethnicity, gender, age, or sexual orientation. In fiscal year 2008, Catholic Charities assisted more than 200,000 people in communities throughout Eastern Massachusetts. Out of respect for our clients and supporters, 84 cents out of every dollar goes directly to client services. Services are sensitive to the needs of diverse populations. Catholic Charities works closely with other community providers and engages volunteers in effective community responses. Resources are targeted to neighborhoods of working poor families, whose wages do not keep pace with need. Catholic Charities serves towns throughout Eastern Massachusetts. Multiple service centers are located in Boston. Others are located as far West as Framingham, as far South as Brockton, and as far North as Lawrence. Today, Catholic Charities maintains the same strong commitment that has guided it for nearly 100 years. Moving decisively toward meeting the needs of a changing population and the challenges of the new millennium, Catholic Charities remains focused on its primary mission: providing hope for all.
