First Step for Change Campaign

First Step for Change is an annual fundraiser held by Catholic Charities to assist low-income women, children, infants and families in need.

WHEN:           Sunday, May 14 (Mother’s Day) – Sunday, June 18 (Father’s Day)

We have asked our parish families to take home “First Step Packets,” learn about the program, complete a participation card, and return the packets to church.  Funds are then forwarded to Catholic Charities to purchase food, formula, diapers, clothing and other essentials items to low-income pregnant women, families and children served in our First Step Programs across the Diocese of Youngstown.

Return FIRST STEP FOR CHANGE PACKETS to your parish, or donate online (Accepting online donations through the end of July).
