This fund will continue Bishop Richard Garcia’s work of reducing poverty in the central coast by supporting our neighbors in need through the work of Catholic Charities in Santa Cruz, San Benito, Monterey, and San Luis Obispo Counties.
Become a member of the Opus Christi Society
“Opus Christi,” in Latin, literally means “hands of Christ.” Members contribute $1,000 or more, annually, to strengthen the financial foundation of Catholic Charities in order to fund our programs. We invite individuals who can make a gift at this level to prayfully consider becoming a member. An appreciation Mass and dinner, hosted by Bishop Garcia, is held once a year to recognize and thank these major donors.
