During the pandemic, in-person volunteerism was significantly reduced. However, as many of our programs are essential, our volunteers stepped up to follow stringent health and safety protocols in order give back.
One such program is The Legacy Foundation Christine Stamper Center for Help & Hope in Bullhead City, which provides both day services and critical overnight shelter for those experiencing homelessness. As the only facility of its kind in the area, operations are crucial. With the assistance of dedicated volunteers like Marilyn, the shelter remained open.
Each year in November and December, Catholic Charities collects toys and other gifts to give out to children in foster care and many other families we serve throughout our Northern and Central Arizona programs. Local companies and businesses were able to participate by volunteering, donating toys and gift cards, hosting a workplace giving event and becoming a sponsor.
