Building to Serve Capital Campaign

PURPOSE
In an effort to dramatically improve access to food and other services to low income Houstonians, Catholic Charities plans to establish the new Family Opportunity Center. Anchored by a market-style food pantry, the new facility will house a variety of programs so that families will not have to travel to multiple locations to get food, attend a parenting class, conduct a job search, or receive rental assistance.  The center will be the new home for Martha’s Kitchen, a hot meals ministry of St. Martha Catholic Church.
