Serving with Passion and Purpose

INPEA is pleased to partner with Catholic Charities Indianapolis for our INPEC service project. We hope you will join us in “Serving with Passion and Purpose!”

Conference attendees are encouraged to bring donations of new socks, winter hats, and gloves to INPEC 2023. These donations will help the 6,500 families helped by Catholic Charities Indianapolis’ basic need programs including emergency shelter, crisis services, refugee resettlement, and immigration services.

“Some of our neighbors in need live on the streets, under a bridge, or in a car. Some are families with children who have lost their home and moved into our shelter, unable to pack all their belongings when they left their home. Some are families who have fled war, violence, conflict, or persecution and have crossed an international border to find safety in another country,” said David Bethuram, Executive Director of Catholic Charities Indianapolis. “These items seem small, but you need to see the faces and smiles when they receive a new hat and gloves to compete with the cold of an Indiana winter. A pair of warm, clean, and dry socks is one of the most needed amenities for our guests in the shelter, a newly arrived refugee or immigrant, and one who travels by foot on the cold streets.”

ABOUT CATHOLIC CHARITIES INDIANAPOLIS, INC.

Catholic Charities Indianapolis has grown and changed significantly since opening its doors in 1919. Over the past 104 years, Catholic Charities Indianapolis has transformed from a mission offering limited services designed to address immediate needs of the poor and hurting in the Indianapolis community to a full service mission providing crisis relief, housing and homelessness services, refugee and immigration services, counseling and school social work, senior care, and pregnancy and adoption services. This move from a reactive rescue response to a proactive empowering response is designed to help children, adults, seniors, and families meet their immediate needs while being taught, empowered, and equipped to become self-sustaining. Catholic Charities Indianapolis annually impacts 70,000 of our neighbors in need, of which 93% of those fall at or below the 185% mark of the Federal Poverty Level.
