Our Respect and Stewardship of Your Gift

Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Peoria plays an essential part in the communities throughout the 26 county area we serve. From providing companionship and assistance to area seniors to protecting and nurturing children to providing disaster relief and crisis intervention, Catholic Charities fulfills vital needs. To ensure Catholic Charities continues to alleviate suffering and encourage healing by providing the needed services, we rely on people like you to donate to our organization. It is expensive to provide quality services. Our budget is more than $20 million each year with funding coming from private donations, contracts for services, United Way contributions, support from the Diocese and various grants. Catholic Charities works very hard to keep administrative costs below the national average to allow more than 94% of our budget to directly fund client programs.
