The Catholic Relief Services collection provides parishioners with an opportunity to be neighbors to people living on the margins both here and around the world. Funds from the collection support organizations that aid victims of war and natural disaster, help resettle refugees and migrants displaced by violence and poverty, and address the pastoral needs of migrant workers, seafarers, and other people lacking stable parish communities.

Specifically, this collection provides funding for Catholic Relief Services; the USCCB Offices of International Justice and Peace, Migration and Refugee Services, and Pastoral Care for Migrants and Refugees; relief work of the Holy Father; and the Catholic Legal Immigration Network.
