WIth winter and tough economic times upon us, Catholic Charities is experiencing a 30-35% increase in the need for basic necessities, such as heat for cleints' homes.  Through three quarters of 2009, the four Catholic Charities social service agencies across the diocese have provided utility assistance to 4,466 clients.  With the need for utility assistance rapidly increasing, please help us Keep the Kids Warm.
