Partner with Catholic Charities to Change Lives in Colorado
Every day, thousands of Coloradans face homelessness, hunger, and lack of basic healthcare. Since 1927, Catholic Charities has provided shelter, meals, medical care, counseling, and pathways to stability. Each year, over 115,000 people across Denver and the Front Range receive support—with 90 cents of every dollar going directly to those in need.
Our services include Samaritan House, Marisol Services, housing, counseling, early childhood education, immigration help, emergency assistance, and senior support. Through these programs, individuals and families find safety, dignity, and hope. We meet urgent needs today while building stronger, healthier communities for tomorrow.
We serve with compassion, not conditions.
We never ask about faith — only how we can help.
