My Dear People,

 

  Crosscare at a very practical level puts our faith into action and brings Christian love to those people who are vulnerable, most in need and socially isolated across the Archdiocese of Dublin.

 

For nearly 70 years Crosscare has been providing food and shelter, it has been helping young people and people with disabilities, emigrants, immigrants and the Travelling community as well as supporting the many carers in the diocese who dedicate their lives to caring for another.

 

Crosscare aims to redress the harsh consequences of poverty and disadvantage. The new economic reality in our country means that increasing numbers of people cannot manage without the help of the caring agencies. Crosscare is working hard to meet these increasing demands despite significant reductions in government funding. Your support for their work is needed now more than ever.

 

Inspired by the example and teaching of Jesus, Crosscare design their services to help those in greatest need. Every effort is made to reflect the belief that every person is created in the image and likeness of God and at a practical level this means that the services provided are of the highest possible standard.

 

I would like to thank you, the people of our Archdiocese for supporting the work of Crosscare each year .

 

Wishing you God’s blessing,
