Caritas Award
 
Catholic Charities could not help thousands of Iowans each year without
the help of our dedicated volunteers. Each year we ask our staff to nominate volunteers to be awarded the Caritas Award to show our appreciation of their dedication to Catholic Charities. 
 
At our Catholic Charities Night at the Iowa Cubs we honored our Caritas Award winners, Blanca Torres and students at Dowling Catholic High School who exemplified the mission of Catholic Charities. 
 
Blanca Torres has been volunteering her time by assisting with our Hispanic Community Outreach Computer Class for more than two years!  

 

Dowling Catholic High School students volunteer throughout the year, and the student group People to People International raised $7,774 for our Refugee Resettlement program.   

  

 

 
Thanks for all of your hard work and dedication to Catholic Charities!
