Your Gift Brings Hope to Our Neighbors in Need

Donating:

Thank you for your interest in supporting Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Albany. We rely on the contributions of thousands of people like you to help make our work possible. Donations can be made to Catholic Charities for use where the need is greatest or designated to a specific program or county. If you wish to designate your gift to a specific program or county, please make a note of that either by enclosing a letter with your donation, in the comments field if you are donating online, or simply make a notation on the bottom left corner of your check.

Volunteering:

What will you accomplish by volunteering with Catholic Charities: You will help the those in need feel important and that they are cared for, especially if you choose an opportunity to directly interact with the people, you will enhance their lives by initiating social relationships. This is incredibly important to people who are often "invisible" and "avoided." Friendly interactions boost self confidence, sense of belonging and happiness. Also, you will help create a connection between the poor and vulnerable and the broader community.

Once you have an idea of how you would like to volunteer, fill out the form linked here and submit it we will contact you!

Upcoming Events:

A great way to support Catholic Charities is by attending or sponsoring one of our events. With the help of community partners, Catholic Charities hosts golf tournaments, fundraising events, and our annual gala Gala for Good - all to raise money to help the poor and vulnerable. 

The Stewardship of Your Gift As one of the nation’s most efficient nonprofits, 88 cents of every dollar donated goes straight to social services that help our neediest neighbors.
