We asked a few people to share with us what CCHD means to them. Here’s what they shared.

“CCHD means solidarity that empowers!” – Fr. Juan Molina, OSST, Director for Church in Latin America, USCCB

“I support CCHD because our faith needs to live in people’s hearts and lives” – Archbishop Kurtz of Louisville and President of the United State Conference of Catholic Bishops

Linda Plitt Donaldson, Professor of Social Work at the Catholic University of America: “CCHD means hope and freedom”

Bishop Donald Hanchon of Detroit: “CCHD means making the poor the ‘subjects’ – and not just the ‘objects’ of the Church’s efforts to help. It’s not just ‘taking a collection’ – but asking the needy: ‘what can we do that may be any help.”
