This page honors just a few of our many donors and supporters. Thank you for your generous support and commitment to Catholic Philadelphia Outreach!
We have received undying support from Father Michael Ryan and Holy Martyrs Parish in Oreland and very generous and ongoing donations from her parishioners.
Ancillae-Assumpta Academy’s boy’s Junior Varsity Football coat drive for CPO was a huge success! Coats were distributed on the corner of Kensington and Allegheny Ave along with coffee, donuts, and the Gospel of Christ! We handed out prayer books too!
City Blue and Upper Dublin Golf and Fitness Club were two community business contributors to our Christmas toy drive to benefit Woodstock Family center, joining with Ancillae-Assumpta Academy families who once again donated generously to CPO.
Channel 3 and Channel 6 Action News were on the scene to film the work of CPO during the Christmas party that we threw for the kids at the Woodstock Family Center, a homeless shelter in North Philadelphia for women and children.
The Valentine’s Day “Love Drop” at Kailo Haven in North Philadelphia was much appreciated by the men there who are homeless. Boy Scout Troop 210 families out of Yardley, PA, donated about a dozen bags of blankets, and Girl Scout Troop 21273 from Langhorne, PA, collected items for the “blessing bags” (filled with personal care items) that were also donated on Valentine’s Day to the men. We brought candy and cupcakes to them to show them our concern for this most-forgotten population among the city’s poor. Kailo Haven is in constant need of everything, including gloves, underwear, blankets, and food. Unlike Woodstock Family Center, Kailo Haven is able to accept food donations.
