20 Years of Shelter & Hope: A Legacy for the Future
This year, as St. John’s celebrates 20 seasons of shelter, the milestone brings both gratitude for what’s been accomplished and hope for what’s ahead. That’s why the St. John’s Homeless Shelter Endowment, held at the Catholic Foundation, is so important. It provides ongoing resources for daily operations, long-term maintenance, and the continuation of programs that restore dignity.
Empowering Missionary Disciples: How Catholic Foundation Grant Fuels Biking for Babies’ Pro-Life Mission
Thanks to a generous Monica Meyer Respect Life Grant from the Catholic Foundation, Biking for Babies continues to empower young adults to become missionary disciples and support pro-life and anti-abortion efforts. This support enabled the creation and distribution of Life Guides—essential formation materials—for all 92 missionaries participating in the 2025 National Ride.
