    Angel Tree
    • Angel Tree

      The Angel Tree program has been a continuing ministry of St. Peter Church for many years. Angel Tree currently benefits Catholic Charities Gifts for God’s Children. Prior to the Catholic Charities  program, Christmas gifts were sent to charities in Marks, Mississippi to help make Christmas brighter for a child in need. The current program helps children, families and seniors in need to have a joyous and holy season. More than one thousand gifts have been donated by St Peter parishioners over the years.

    Catholic Charities of West Tennessee
    • Catholic charities of west tennessee

      Mission

      Following the teachings of Jesus Christ, we provide help to those in need and bring them hope by supporting them on the path from poverty to self-sufficiency.

      Vision

      A community where all can find hope, dignity, and support from their neighbors in time of need.

      Catholic Charities of West Tennessee has been serving West Tennessee for over 50 years, working to end hunger, end homelessness, and offer hope to families seeking a better tomorrow.

      We try to meet people where they are, offering hope as we help, and we never do this work alone. Volunteerism is a key driver in this work, as individuals, churches, businesses, schools, and others serve with us every day.

      What We Do

      Informed by the themes of Catholic Social Teaching, CCWTN approaches its work with a spirit of hospitality, intentionality, and service. The four main services of CCWTN are emergency services, housing services, outreach services, and community support services.

      Emergency Services represents the largest number of people served, and includes food, clothing, and disaster assistance for over 50,000 people each year.

      Housing Services provides assistance for persons experiencing homelessness, focusing on creating a successful path to permanent and stable housing. Over the last year, Catholic Charities ended homelessness for over 400 people, and is on track to exceed 500 in the coming year. Approximately 1 in 3 people experiencing homelessness in the Greater Memphis area are served at CCWTN.

      Outreach Services meet the basic needs of Memphis’ homeless population. These services are designed to build trust, connect resources, and ultimately map a path to housing stability. Services include mobile street outreach, daily meals, clothing, access to restrooms, hand washing stations, and weekly community prayer with coffee at CCWTN. This program has grown by 300% since COVID-19 arrived.

      Community Support Services include summer camp, family empowerment, school supplies, holiday giving, and immigration support. These programs combined, serve the non-emergency needs of nearly 3,000 people each year.
