Dear Pastor/Parish Administrator,Our faith teaches us that we are called to walk with our brothers and sisters who find themselves on the margins of society and to empower them to bring about change in their communities. By asking your parishioners to support the collection for the Catholic Campaign for Human development (CCHD), you are helping people living in poverty have a say in the decisions that affect their lives. Through this collection, your parishioners can be in soli-darity with those in poverty, supporting them as they break the cycle of poverty and make their communities more just. And remember, 25 percent of funds collected remain in your diocese to fund local anti-poverty Island in Washington State is stunningly beauti-ful with scenic views of the ocean and greenery. But this island, and the county it is in, have the lowest wages in the state, and housing is often out of reach for many residents.
