2 CATHOLIC CHARITIES Message from His Eminence, EDWARD CARDINAL EGAN
Dear Friends: The human needs of Three phrases from the Catholic Charities mission statement —"touching almost “ every human need," "seeking to uphold the dignity of each person as made in the image of God," and " serving the poor, troubled, frail and oppressed of all religions"— provide a clear distraught children, picture of the challenge Catholic Charities faces. My visits this past year to a number of outstanding Catholic Charities programs made this challenge most apparent to me. abused adolescents or Just two days before Christmas, I visited The Lawrence F. Hickey Center for Child Development in the North Bronx, where I met forty girls and boys, ages three to five, struggling immigrant with special needs. Nearly all of their families live at or below the poverty line. In each of the five classrooms, I saw children with serious emotional and learning disorders mothers are just a few receiving the best of care and treatment. Despite their problems, the toddlers I met were open and engaged, full of laughter and holiday excitement. The care they receive at this of the many Catholic young age is effectively helping them overcome their many and varied difficulties. At the Cardinal McCloskey Services’ Hayden House in Ossining, I met adolescents who Charities touches ... had been through rough times with their families. Most were abused or neglected and lacked many of the normal routines essential to healthy development. Here, the youngsters as it works with both were doing their homework, or learning the skills needed to rebuild and advance themselves. I was interviewed by a self-assured resident reporter for the Hayden House newspaper professional excellence whose pertinent questions ranged from my years in Rome to my views on education. Great work is being done at Hayden House in giving back to these youngsters what was and an abiding spiritual taken from them. In East Harlem, I met with a group of immigrant mothers and their small children, mostly sense of the dignity of Mexican and Ecuadorian, who are members of a unique support group called Maria. They were holding their regular Wednesday morning session at the Catholic Charities each person to meet site at St. Cecilia’s Church on East 106 Street. Also at this site, a strong corps of parish volunteers, assisted by Catholic Charities staff, operates a food pantry used by more than human needs” 1,000 families a month. A trained social worker also assists with eviction prevention, emergency financial relief, and links to other vital services. The most vivid memory of this visit was the meeting between these Hispanic mothers and Commissioner Guillermo Linares of the New York City Mayor's Office of Immigrant Affairs. The mothers, with polite toughness and self-confidence nurtured by the Catholic Charities staff, spoke of their problems and needs, and those of their children. The human needs of distraught children, abused adolescents or struggling immigrant mothers are a few of the many Catholic Charities touches as it serves "the poor, troubled and frail of all religions." May I ask that you read this Annual Report and share it with your family and friends. It sets forth a multitude of compelling reasons to support Catholic Charities as it works with both professional excellence and an abiding spiritual sense of the dignity of each person to meet human needs throughout the ten counties of the Archdiocese of New York. With prayerful best wishes, I remain Very truly yours in Christ,
Edward Cardinal Egan Archbishop of New York
ANNUAL REPORT 2004 3 Message from the Chairman, Board of Trustees JOHN J. PHELAN, JR.
Dear Friends: Basic needs, like shelter, food, work, and a country to call home, must be met for each individual — child or adult — to live in dignity. For thousands of New Yorkers living in the ten counties of the New York Archdiocese, these needs would not be met if it were not for Catholic Charities. Catholic Charities serves immigrants, refugees, the blind and deaf, the mentally, emotionally and physically challenged, the hungry, the homeless and those in danger of becoming homeless, those imprisoned and their families. As diverse as these services are, they are united by a common vision of each individual as made in God’s image and likeness and, therefore, worthy of dignity and respect. Catholic Charities serves the most vulnerable people without regard to religion. Need and available resources are the only criteria. Providing a vast array of human services requires the dedication of many individuals filling many different roles. Every day, the hearts and hands of these services are the thousands of dedicated professional I feel privileged to staff and myriad volunteers. We owe them a debt of gratitude. “ I would like to stress the importance of, and my appreciation to, the work with Catholic more than 1000 volunteer directors and trustees of the federation of more than 100 Catholic Charities agencies throughout the New York Charities. It’s as simple metropolitan area. Their contribution of time, insight, and financial resources is critical to the success of our agencies.

Catholic a symposium for them on nonprofit corporate governance with New York State Attorney General Eliot Spitzer as the main speaker.

We owe this to those who contribute to our programs dedication, reaching and services, and we owe this to those who depend on our services. out to those with all I feel privileged to work with Catholic Charities. It’s as simple as that. Catholic Charities responds with determination and dedication, types of need. reaching out to those with all types of need.

4 CATHOLIC CHARITIES Report to the Community from the Executive Director MONSIGNOR KEVIN SULLIVAN
The glass is both half full and half empty for Catholic Charities. Through the efforts of our dedicated staff, volunteers and benefactors, New Yorkers of all religions have been helped to live better lives and are treated with dignity and respect. So, the glass is half full with so much goodness. Yet, haunting questions persist. Why must we do this? What is wrong that so many are not able to meet their basic needs? Is the problem with the individuals or with our priorities as a society? Whatever the correct combination of answers, the stark reality is that the glass is also half empty. Too many of our sisters and brothers are far too vulnerable and poor. They need our help and The Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of New York is there where help is needed, from the tip of Staten Island to Dutchess, Ulster and Sullivan counties in the Hudson Valley, through more than 100 human service agencies. Permit me to comment on what seems like an insignificant part of Catholic Charities’ full name: The Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of New York. "The" is critical. Catholic Charities was formed in 1917 to coordinate the multiple Catholic charitable because government attempts to impose requirements on our activities in the Archdiocese — The Catholic Charities.

ANNUAL REPORT 2004 7 Children & Families
Catholic Charities responds to the needs of children and families – helping parents to keep their children safe and give them a better chance in life. It’s a miracle that Brenton, age three, is alive. He had two open-heart surgeries before he was one week old, and spent two years in hospitals. His parents were told that Brenton would die. Because Brenton could not be with his family, his mother brought the family to him. She visited him every day, traveling for hours from the Bronx with Brenton’s sisters and little brother. Brenton finally came home with a Pacemaker monitoring his heart. He was unable to speak, and needed a special crib to keep him bacteria-free. Maritza, a Catholic Charities case worker, found the crib and provided emergency food assistance for the family and the funds to pay the phone bill — critical because Brenton’s Pacemaker is monitored by phone. Maritza also made sure that Brenton and his family got new coats and clothes from the Catholic Charities Holiday Adopt-a-Family Program.

8 Welcoming Newcomers
Many immigrants in America face exploitation at work, disrupted families, legal hurdles and an unfamiliar language and culture. Catholic Charities responds. Mohammad came to America from Pakistan. The dream: to reunite his family in his new country. He worked at construction jobs until catastrophe struck. One gusty morning, the wind blew him from the scaffolding. He fell three stories to the ground. When Mohammad woke up in the hospital, his eye was blind- ed, his teeth shattered, his arm crushed and his body black with bruises. Mohammad has been unable to work, and his small Workmen’s Compensation stipend recently ran out. Still, he refuses public assistance. Mohammad went to Catholic Charities with his family. Saroj, an immigration counselor, filed documents to keep the family together. Today, his children are with him in Brooklyn, working, supporting the family and going to school – and fulfilling Mohammad’s dream.

9 Shelter
Catholic Charities responds to one of the most elemental human needs of poor and struggling families — safe and reliable shelter. Stacey’s story starts with abandonment and ends with family and faith. She was 2 when her heroine-addicted mother left her. Like her mother, Stacey found comfort in drugs, was raped and gave her first child up for adoption. It took a judge’s placement of her other children in foster care and jail time to bring Stacey’s down- ward spiral to a halt. But there were no quick fixes in her life. She entered a rehabilitation program, got her children back, a job and a place for them to live. Then Stacey lost her job and the little house she was renting. A Catholic Charities social worker secured deposit money for an apartment and the first lease Stacey ever had. The social worker helped Stacey get the public assistance that holds the family together as Stacey works part-time and completes a medical certification course. It’s been — and still is — a hard life. But with her family and her faith Stacey feels she’s up to it.

10 Youth
Young people are often lost, frightened and struggling. They need an anchor. Catholic Charities provides it. Justin had to be an adult at a young age. He was barely 10 when his disturbed and addicted mother left him alone to care for his younger brother and sister. Later, Justin’s mother became pregnant and simply disappeared. Justin and his little family were taken in by their grandparents. When they saw how bewildered and lonely Justin was, they took him to Catholic Charities in Peekskill. With the support of his counselor there and the love of his grandparents, Justin became strong enough to begin grieving and trying to understand his loss. Deprived of a childhood, Justin needed to be a kid. In the summer, he went to a Catholic Youth Organization camp. The thrill of rock climbing, and the fun of swimming and playing sports with other youngsters helped Justin to reclaim what was left of his childhood and finally take the first steps towards acting his real age.

11 Social & Community Development
Drugs, homelessness and prison diminish the lives of those who have lost their way and of those who love them. When needs become overwhelming, Catholic Charities responds. At 42, Michelle says she’s gone through life between a jail cell and the grave. Pregnant at 16, she dropped out of school and by 23 had three children and was taking drugs. But she always managed to take care of her children. Then her beloved father suffered a stroke. Michelle lost her anchor. She sold drugs and her body to support her addiction. She became infected with HIV and gave her children to relatives. After being released from prison for drug dealing, Michelle was arrested again. This time she called the arrest "a rescue." After serving three years in state prisons, Michelle was finally drug-free. She started a new life in the Education Outreach Program of Catholic Charities. She attended the program’s weekly sessions and with its support earned her GED and was reunited with her children.
SERVICES

12 Elderly
The physical and financial resources of many older adults wane just as their needs grow. Catholic Charities responds with food, shelter, advocacy and assistance. After 50 years of working in factories, Shang looked forward to retirement. But he was denied Social Security benefits because he could not prove he was a US citizen. Shang immigrated to America from China as a very young boy. He was badly abused by his family. When another family took him in, he finally found safety and a home but lost any link to his past. Without Social Security benefits, Shang had to work overtime instead of retiring. At Catholic Charities, Shang and his brother, Peter, spoke with Norma, an immigration counselor. She took the time to research Shan’s immigration records and discovered proof that Shang was, indeed, an American citizen. Shang now receives monthly Social Security payments. For the first time in his life, he can take time off.

ANNUAL REPORT 2004 31 A REMEMBRANCE
"Gather, Transform and Serve"
"Gather, transform and serve! When done in the name of Jesus Christ this is the spirit of Catholic Charities and of all who work in the cause, because it is the faithful following of the one who did ‘not come to be served but to serve’ (Mk. 10:45). By working for a society which fosters the dignity of every human person, not only are you serving the poor, but you are renewing the founding vision of this nation under God! And may God reward you abundantly."
"Service to those in need must take the form of direct action to relieve their anxieties and to remove their burdens, and at the same time lead them to the dignity of self reliance."
"Service to the poor also involves speaking up for them and trying to reform structures which cause or perpetuate their oppression."
"Solidarity and service are above all a duty of Christian love Reflections on the Mission which must involve the whole community." and Work of Catholic Charities "The Christian view is that human beings are to be valued for by what they are, not for what they have. In loving the poor and His Holiness serving those in whatever need, the Church seeks above all to respect and heal their human dignity." POPE JOHN PAUL II "Catholic Charities is a title that speaks wonderfully well of the 1920-2005 general commitment of the Catholic people of the United States to the cause of solidarity and Christian love."
"You carry on a tradition and you live out a teaching grounded in Sacred Scripture proclaimed by the Church and relevant to every age. Service to the poor builds up social harmony, it reveals God, our Father, as the rescuer of the oppressed. In the Old Testament it was God’s love for His people that decreed a special concern for the stranger, the widow, and the orphan. As God has treated His people, so are they to treat others."
Excerpts from an address by His Holiness Pope John Paul II at the Annual Conference of Catholic Charities USA in 1987.
