Archbishop’s Benefit for Children
Motivated by our Catholic faith, Catholic Charities of Philadelphia has been entrusted to provide children in the Greater Philadelphia region with the resources they need to learn and grow in a nurturing environment. Gifts made to the Archbishop’s Benefit for Children, an initiative of the Catholic Charities Appeal, support the daily operations and special projects of over a dozen Catholic Charities of Philadelphia programs that provide help and create hope for thousands of children and youth each year, including children of veteran households and immigrant families. In addition, Catholic Charities of Philadelphia offers a full range of support services for pregnant mothers and their newborn children.
