to Keep The Kids Warm?
We are!
Catholic Charities' annual Keep the Kids Warm campaign began on the Feast of the Holy Family (December 30) and ran through the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord (January 9, 2012). Keep the Kids Warm is an important annual effort to raise utility assistance funds for familites served by Catholic Charities throughout the Diocese of Youngstown! All funds collected will be returned to the county where they originated! It's not too late to help!
