FHC ALMSGIVING 2024About Aid for Women Aid for Women was founded in 1978 on the faith and teachings of the Catholic Church. Aid for Women helps thousands of women each year in the Chicago metropolitan area who find themselves facing unexpected pregnancies. Each woman is provided with the emotional, practical and spiritual support that she needs to choose life for her unborn baby and to provide a better future for herself and her child. Aid for Women currently operates five Pregnancy Care Centers, as well as two Maternity Homes (Heather’s House and Monica’s House). About Faith Hope & Carpenters Faith Hope and Carpenters (FHC) is our Parish volunteer team that works with Rebuilding Together North Suburban Chicago, to restore and rehab homes for needy families with children, the elderly, those with disabilities and veterans who live in the northern suburbs and have few resources to make the needed repairs to their homes. FHC has been providing this service for over 17 years. Stay tuned for details on this year’s project. We are ever grateful for your caring and support! About FHC Food Sharing Program The FHC Food Sharing Program helps to support several food pantries and soup kitchens in the Chicagoland area. The food distribution from these pantries serve over 15,000 families and individuals every year! In addition, there is also a mobile food pantry that brings the available food items out to various locations for pickup a couple times per month. The Soup Kitchens provide meals at several kitchens that benefit from our Food Sharing program, but essentially dinner is served 7-days per week, and each location providing meals can serve anywhere from 95 to 200 people per evening! Our partnership continues to need your support! Thank you for your continued generosity! 2022-2023 ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT
