Holiday Season Rush at Catholic Charities

Catholic Charities of Denver was buzzing on November 20 when Christie M, Dale M, Jacque S and Joyce S made a Christmas delivery. Firehouse Quilts volunteers made and donated 40 quilts, 9 Christmas quilts, 19 receiving blankets with burp cloths and 11 afghans. These items will be used right away because the clientele at Catholic Charities has increased greatly. Catholic Charities offers many services to help families and individuals in need. Some of these services include food, help with utilities, rent assistance, temporary shelter, and gasoline cards. Clients are seen and helped by a personal counselor who helps them on an individual basis.
