CAFOD

The official international development and relief agency of the Catholic Church of England & Wales. It builds long-term partnership with local organisations in Asia, Africa, and Latin America to build a better world for people living in extreme poverty whatever their race, nationality or religion. It works to persuade the governments and institutions in the UK and overseas to change unjust policies that trap people in poverty. It also focuses on creating sustain able livelihoods combating HIV and Aids as well as peace building. In an emergency CAFOD provides immediate relief and supports long-term programmes to rebuild people’s lives. Support: There are two weekend collections in a year, Lenten Family Fast Day, and Harvest Fast Day. Campaign workers are supplied with the relevant information for attention of the parish which is distributed through the parish newsletter, website, and noticeboards.
