  OUR MISSION is to provide social services to people in
need, regardless of their religious, social or economic
background, to improve lives of individuals, families and
the community. Catholic Charities of Central Florida is
founded on the coming together of the good news of the
Gospel and the scandal of human suffering. The Bible takes
human suffering very seriously. Faithful citizenship for
a Catholic begins with the principles rooted in sacred
scripture, outlined in the corporal and spiritual works
of mercy and Catholic social teaching to enhance life and
foster the right of each person to live in freedom and
dignity.
In pursuing our mission we hold the values of Dignity, Respect, and Compassion for our clients, our partners
in service delivery and ourselves. We approach each task with Professionalism, Commitment and Integrity.
Our vision is to create a more capable and connected social service agency focused on meeting today's needs and positioned to meet the
challenges of tomorrow.

Multiply your Love this Thanksgiving and Christmas
Would you like to help a stuggling family have a blessed Thanksgiving and a
joyful Christmas celebration? Consider making a financial donation to
Catholic Charities of Central Florida.
Your financial donation made to Catholic Charities is leveraged with our partner agencies enabling us to
multiply your gift into a bountiful holiday food contribution to several struggling families.
An Example of how leveraging works:
If you buy a box of cereal at the grocery store it will cost you $4.00.
If you buy 7 boxes of cereal at the grocery store it will cost you $28.00.
If you donate $28.00 to Catholic Charities of Central Florida we can buy 10 cases or 120 boxes of cereal and still have $1.00 left over!
