Catholic Charities of Merced

Catholic Charities of Merced We're the primary aid for neighbors in need, providing food, clothing, and essentials.

Based in Merced, our brick-and-mortar site and Rural Outreach Program cater to underserved Valley areas, ensuring support for all. Catholic Charities is a Community Benefit Organization serving the needs of those in crisis throughout the community regardless of race, age or religious beliefs. Families experiencing difficult economic times are invited to seek assistance from Catholic Charities year

-round in order to ease the burden of caring for their families. It is because of the generosity of donors, supporters and community partners that we are able to provide food, clothing and financial management to those most vulnerable throughout the year. We are dedicated to doing the most good with the generous donations made to us and are proud that 90 cents of every dollar donated goes directly into our programs and services that provide help and create hope for those in the greatest of need.
