First Step for Change

Catholic Charities is currently collecting donations for the First Step for Change campaign that began in parishes on Mother’s Day and ended in parishes Father’s Day — honoring the faith, humility and love it takes to raise a child, and recognizing that many parents lack adequate financial resources for their children.  Funds raised through this campaign assist low-income expectant parents and families with food, formula, clothing, diapers, and other items essential to a child’s health, safety and well-being.

Reminder, all parish families were asked to return envelopes to their parish by June 30.   (or mail directly to Catholic Charities)

All money collected at your local parish will help to meet the needs in your own community!  Thank you for joining us in supporting this pro-life campaign.

We will continue with online collections throughout the month of July!

For questions, please contact Jennifer Lucarelli at 330-744-8451 or jlucarelli@youngstowndiocese.org.
