Meet Catholic Charities
With 153 programs at 154 locations throughout Cook and Lake counties, we serve virtually every neighborhood in the Chicagoland area without regard to religious, ethnic or economic background and help people in need realize their full potential.
Our services help people from the point of conception through the last stages of their lives. We keep mothers and their babies well-fed, prepare children in low-income families for school, keep youth in school and out of gangs, counsel and give job training to adults with economic troubles, provide affordable housing for seniors, and organize in-home care services for seniors who need help caring for themselves.
Join our Giving Tuesday Challenge!
This Giving Tuesday Catholic Charities is teaming up with two amazing organizations to help vulnerable individuals rebuild their lives and give them hope for a better tomorrow.
Any gift to our Giving Tuesday campaign will be matched up to $5,000 by The Retirement Research Foundation (1:1 Match) to help the seniors we serve. We are also eligible for a bonus award of $1,500 from the foundation if we engage the greatest number of new donors from the organization's #GT grantees.
The Healthcare Foundation of Northern Lake County will match new and increased gifts up to $10,000!
