Caritas Canada Building a World of Justice! 

“I am committed to Development and Peace – Caritas Canada to concretely promote international solidarity and human dignity for all. Through advocacy, awareness-raising and fundraising, I am responding to an inner calling: to walk with the most vulnerable toward a reconciled, more just and deeply human world.” –Marjolaine Mondon, Montreal Quebec.

Guided by Catholic Social Teaching, we support women and social movements as key agents of lasting change. We seek to eliminate the root causes of poverty, oppression and inequality by working with partners in the Global South and by mobilizing Canadians. Here are a few examples: in the Middle East, peace and reconciliation; in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, justice for women; in Bangladesh, humanitarian aid; in Brazil, ecological justice; and in Haiti, citizen participation. To read more on each of these programs that make a difference, please pick up a copy of the ‘Building a World of Justice’ brochure available in the lobby of the church. To achieve this, we need you!
