From Hunger to Hope
ABOUT CARITAS OF WACO
Caritas of Waco is a non-profit organization meant to provide urgent support to those in need in the Waco community. The Emergency Assistance program provides food, prescription drugs, clothing, household items and utilities to those who qualify. Caritas interviews all recipients of Emergency Assistance to determine their emergency needs. Caritas provides an opportunity for individuals who have an abundance to share with others who are unable to meet their minimal needs. Over 98 percent of every dollar given to Caritas comes from public support, and 86 percent of all Caritas contributions go directly into Emergency Assistance.
The Vision
“To eliminate hunger in McLennan County, Texas, by providing direct services through its food pantry as well as through advocacy, while working with other hunger relief programs in Central Texas."
- Caritas of Waco is a non-profit charity organization founded in 1967 by the Austin Diocese of the Roman Catholic Church, but has been an independent ecumenical agency since 1979.
- We offer food, clothing, household items, and travel to anyone, regardless of race, age, sex, ethnicity or location.
- Caritas is supported through various faith, civic and service organizations, charitable foundations, area businesses and individuals.
- We also rely heavily on the community for volunteers, without whom Caritas could not be a fully functioning organization.
