Celebrating Our Volunteers: Architects of Hope & Healing🌟This International Volunteer Day, we salute the selfless hearts who transform lives! Your empathy has turned a family's tide—from experiencing homelessness to a nurturing haven. It's not just a roof; it's a realm where a child, family and individual sleeps pain-free, and dignity is restored. Your actions echo in the joy of children, like this little girl, who now knows the comfort of a 'home.' Together, we're not just building spaces, but fostering the foundation for our community to thrive emotionally, physically, and spiritually. Let's keep weaving this tapestry of compassion. Your hands are the pillars upon which our mission stands. Join us to continue this journey of imparting total healing and hope. Every act of kindness, moment of service, and volunteer helps rewrite someone’s story, turning challenges into opportunities for healing, hope, and a brighter future. Be a part of their story: 👉Learn more at www.ccasfnm.org #ccasfnm #catholiccharities #Albuquerque #NewMexico #InternationalVolunteerDay #VolunteerForChange #communityStrong #traumaInformedDesign #HealingToSelfSufficiency #bethechange

On Native American Heritage Day, we honor the sacred land of New Mexico and the profound wisdom of its first peoples. Today, we celebrate the rich cultures, accomplishments, and contributions of Native Americans. Their worldview teaches us that all things in nature have purpose, healing is found in balance with the earth, and every person has a unique mission in life. These enduring values of unity, respect for all living things, and reverence for creation align deeply with Catholic Charities' mission to honor human dignity, guiding us toward a future where every individual is valued. Together, let us ensure that the heritage of Native American communities continues to enrich and inspire the world for generations to come.   Please note: Our offices are closed today and will reopen on Monday, December 2, 2024.   #ccasfnm #catholiccharities #Albuquerque #NewMexico #NativeAmericanHeritageDay #NativeAmerican #AmericanIndian #honoringhumandignity
