Food, shelter or medicine

No gift is too small or too large. Over 33,000 Catawba County citizens have to choose between hunger, home, or health every day. Your support can make a difference. Every $5 you give is providing someone with so much more…a bag of groceries, another month of housing, a much needed bottle of insulin. For giving options click on the quick link “How can you help?” 

Honor Cards
