ATTENTION ALL SHAW’S SHOPPERS

Miracles Happen Everyday |
| Since 1945, New Hampshire Catholic Charities has responded to the needs |
| of people from every walk of life in every community throughout the state. |
| The agency has comforted grieving families, held the hands of scared children, |
| and provided hope for families struggling through difficult times, |
| and helped people ion their times of personal crisis. |
|
People
like |
| on her apartment door that she had two weeks to vacate the building. |
| This was the second time this year that this had happened. |
| Her landlord couldn’t make his mortgage payment; |
| the bank was foreclosing and wanted the building empty before auction. |
|
|
| She turned to Catholic Charities for help. |
| We were able to offer a listening ear, while helping her |
|
navigate appropriate programs and services available to her. |
| We couldn’t make her problems go away, |
| but at least she didn’t have to go through them alone, |
| and we were able to offer her some resources. |
| With each passing year, the call to help becomes more desperate, more involved and |
| Catholic Charities is faced with the challenge to answer. |
| The annual appeal is a primary source of funding for Catholic Charities. |
| It is through your generosity that the agency is able to continue |
| its mission of helping & healing. Please give what you can. |
|
You make miracles happen
when you make a gift. |
