Catholic Charities/San Gabriel Region

COVID-19 made life difficult for everyone in 2020, and homeless and low-income individuals and families suffered the most. Catholic Charities San Gabriel Region helped thousands of vulnerable and sometimes desperate people from our community centers in Pomona, El Monte, and East Los Angeles. In the spirit of Christmas, we invite you to donate what you can to let us continue our mission of providing help, creating hope, and empowering lives towards self-sufficiency throughout the San Gabriel Valley. https://CCLASGRXmas.givesmart.com
