COVID-19 Services/Response:

Our thanks to the remarkable staff, partners, donors, and volunteers who are helping us meet the needs of those least able to navigate these unprecedented circumstances. We are in your debt.

Service Update:

  • For urgent needs, please call 312-655-7700
  • Meals to go are available at Congregate Meal sites and Senior Centers. Catholic Charities has suspended all senior group activities and adult day care amidst the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • Our home care services continue, and are following a more sophisticated protocol as there are seniors who have no one to drop off groceries and provide basic hygiene assistance.
  • Food pantries and evening meal programs will continue to provide food depending on supplies and safe distribution protocols. Please check under Our Services/Emergency Services for locations and phone numbers.
  • Counseling, case management, and other services that can be provided remotely are being delivered accordingly. Please call your case worker or program contact if you need assistance.

How You Can Help:
Due to COVID-19 exposure risks, we are unable to take donations of clothing or food from individuals or groups at this time.  

  • Please consider a contribution. The need for financial assistance and program support for those who were only just making ends meet will grow significantly with lost wages and other impact from the pandemic.
  • Masks, hand sanitizer, paper towels, or bleach wipes are needed and can be dropped at any Catholic Charities location. 
  • When shopping on Amazon, please use Amazon Smile and choose Catholic Charities so we might benefit from your purchase. 
  • Volunteers needed to pack food at pantries.  If you are not in a high risk category and are willing to help, please email Andrew McKernin at amckernin@catholiccharities.net. Protective gear provided. Health protocols enforced. 
  • Thank the human service workers, first responders, and grocery/gas station/coffee vendors in your life and when you see them in action.

FAMILY STABILIZATION EFFORTS

Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Chicago directly supported thousands of families last year by providing emergency financial assistance to cover expenses such as rent, utilities, food, medical costs, and transportation. As our staff help these families meet their immediate needs, we also address problems from a long-term perspective to help prevent their reoccurence in the future. For example, hundreds of families last year attended financial management seminars after having visited our food pantries, learning how to budget for the unexpected and stretch their dollars. In these ways, those that seek our care learn how to overcome such challenges as poverty, poor living conditions and homelessness, unemployment, and limited education.


A few things you should know

    • Every 30 seconds someone turns to Catholic Charities for help.
    • 92¢ of every dollar we raise goes directly to help people in need.
    • It costs $556,000 to run our programs each day.
    • 158 programs at 174 different sites operate on a daily basis at Catholic Charities, many 24 hours a day.

Without you, we could not serve the community's needs or show others in need that self-sufficiency is a reachable goal. Thank you!
