We not only help those families who come to us for services, but by providing an opportunity to members of the community to share a portion of what they have been given in an effective, rewarding manner. We encourage you to stay abreast of such topics and where your representatives stand on the issues. Volunteers contribute an enormous amount of time and effort to the works of Catholic Charities of Dallas. Many of the men and women who volunteer for Catholic Charities are skilled professionals who provide their expertise for free and make possible many services which would otherwise be unavailable to our clients.
Many opportunities exist for schools, businesses or other organizations to volunteer as a group.
There is not a single program of Catholic Charities of Dallas that could exist without financial contributions from individuals and organizations. In addition, you can now give new or gently used items such as clothes, furniture and cars to Catholic Charities of Dallas. Most of these items go directly to clients. For example, refugee families who arrive in this country with virtually no personal belongings can start their new lives with furniture, clothes and other household goods which you donate. Through our Charities Home Center, many other items can be resold, thereby converting otherwise discarded items into needed goods and services.
