To make sure as much of the money we receive as possible goes to providing food and shelter to the homeless, we do not have a development director or a huge administrative staff. We have only one full time and two part time employees. Our board of directors, our fellow parishioners and community members volunteer their time and talent to get things done.
If you have ever made a donation and received a thank you note, it came from Linda Barrett. Linda is the mother of our long time board member, Dawn Barrett, and she volunteers countless hours making sure that your donations are acknowledged. If you make a donation and do not think that you need an acknowledgement until the end of the year, include a note with your donation or email me at kvolz@akkloaw.com and I will make sure that Linda knows.
Call any board member or call the Catholic Worker House and talk to our house manager, Larissa. We would be happy to talk to you or your group about the people we serve and how you can help.
