Gardeners & Hunters

Gardeners and Hunters: Help Feed the Hungry! Donate your excess garden produce or your processed meat. Call (309) 966-4488 or email jjgibson@ccdop.org for more information. 

Christmas Program
If you do not have extra time on your hands maybe you would consider a donation of some items from the "wish list" on Amazon. When purchasing items from the "wish list", they will be delivered directly to Catholic Charities. You may also purchase similar items and drop them off at the address below.  As always, cash donations are welcome, too, and may be made online or mailed to Catholic Charities Christmas Program, 615 NE Jefferson Street, Peoria, IL 61603.

Volunteer

Catholic Charities has always had a mission focused on the Corporal Works of Mercy: to feed the hungry, to give drink to the thirsty, to shelter the homeless, to clothe the naked, to visit and ransom the captive, and to visit the sick. Advocacy is also an important aspect of Catholic Charities mission.  We serve other individuals, meeting them where they are at, fostering an awareness, speaking out, and encouraging others to do the same.

Catholic Charities is currently on the lookout for people (or groups) who would like to offer their time, talent and skills to volunteer. Please submit this form below indicating your interest.

Thank you and may God bless you.
