Each year, Catholic Charities of Southern Minnesota makes one dedicated appeal to our community— an invitation to come together in support of our neighbors who need us most. That time is now.

Across Southern Minnesota, we are providing support, refuge, stability, and hope through shelter, rent and utility assistance, diapers, essential care, and so much more.

At a time when state and federal funding has all but disappeared, the need in our communities continues to grow. That’s why we are rallying around what matters most, caring for one another.

We invite you to be part of this mission. Your gift helps ensure that individuals and families in Southern Minnesota facing hardship are not alone.

Remember—every dollar you give stays right here in Southern Minnesota, supporting our local communities. Together, we can continue to be a source of hope for our neighbors in need.
