Earlier this month, OCHDL proudly sponsored a charitable event at the Wisconsin Club, downtown Milwaukee, in honor of Catholic Relief Services; the official international humanitarian agency of the Catholic community in the United States. The event had many influential guests in attendance, including Archbishop Listecki, Dr. Carolyn Woo, CEO and President of CRS, and Coach Wojciechowski of Marquette University. The event generated a great deal of awareness, as well as the much needed funds to support this overall amazing cause.
Catholic Relief Services is one of the largest international aid organizations in the world. They are also one of the most efficient and effective: Ninety-seven percent of their expenditures go directly to programs that benefit individuals overseas. As part of the universal mission of the Catholic Church, they work with local, national and international Catholic institutions and structures, and other organizations, to assist people on the basis of need, without regard to race, religion or nationality. They alleviate suffering and provide assistance to more than 100 million people in need who live in some of the most impoverished places in over 100 countries.
O’Neil Cannon are honored to have been a part of such a meaningful event and encourage everyone in the community to look into this selfless agency.
