As President of the Board of Franciscan Works and Liberia Mission Inc., I am proud to support this remarkable organization. Franciscan Works serves vulnerable children and young people in Liberia through a holistic mission that provides education, care, and faith based formation rooted in human dignity. The goal is not only academic success but the development of confident, compassionate, and self sustaining young adults. I have seen firsthand the integrity, transparency, and careful stewardship that guide this mission. Resources are used responsibly and directed primarily toward programs that directly benefit the students we serve. Franciscan Works truly embodies Franciscan values of service, humility, and hope. I strongly recommend this organization to anyone seeking to support meaningful, life changing work.

Corrupt, immoral, money laundering fake charity. Do NOT give your money here. They do NOT help people in need. This is a scam through and through that will waste your time and ghost. It's rotten from the very top (no response from CEO, etc.)

I have worked - unpaid - with CRS for ten years as a'Global Fellow" - someone who can tell stories about CRS - who they are and what they do. I am an ordained Deacon in the Catholic Church and I have a passion for Social Justice and Catholic Social Teaching. The work of CRS is International Humanitarian Aid. CRS touches over a hundred millions lives a year - not only with food - but also with seeds that are part of a package of agricultural instruction to help villagers feed their families and find hope for the furture. CRS teaches basic health skills that we take for granted. CRS is on the gound playing a role in refugee camps and war zones. I travelled to Kenya to see first hand the work of CRS in villages ravaged by AIDS. CRS provided one on one therapy and distributed antiretroviral medication. CRS taught survivors how to run their family farm plot - waht crops would grow best and how to find a way to irrigate in drry periods.

This is a Roman Catholic charity supporting the mission work of the Capuchin Franciscan Friars in remote parts of the world. I found out about this religious order and the Seraphic Mass Association years ago when they staffed a Catholic parish to which I belonged in St. Louis, Missouri. I was impressed by their devotion, their kindness and their dedication (two of them served WELL PAST normal retirement age). The Association offers Novenas throughout the year that donors can have their intentions and loved ones enrolled in and that is how I first started to contribute to them. In addition to the Novenas, for the past 13 years I have contributed to them quarterly as a "St. Anthony Mission Partner." Their donor services are efficient (they can tweak your mailing preferences virtually any way you want). In the past, they sent a confirmation listing my intentions, but now they just acknowledge the donation. Sometimes they are slow in processing my gift and sending a "thank you" letter.

I was a CISE staff member for close to 20 years before my retirement. My fellow staff members and I, along with a dedicated Board of Directors, were proud to work hard to help the CISE schools provide an excellent education to children in Cincinnati’s urban neighborhoods. Over the years, I witnessed the positive impact that CISE had on their students’ lives. The dedication of the administrators and teachers at the CISE schools is inspiring. It was heartwarming to witness how the partnership of CISE with our generous donors allowed our schools to educate and prepare thousands of young people to become productive, successful members of our community. I am happy to continue to support the good work of CISE as a donor. <br>

I served a short term service in Uganda in 2017 with Mission Doctors. I currently am a practicing OB/GYN. My experience was so rewarding and fulfilling in all aspects, from the informational retreat, the suggested placement of where to serve, helpful resources, partnering me with another seasoned physician, but most importantly being able to live out a dream. I am such a fan of the people involved with this organization that I became a board member in 2020. Our goals are to provide best of care to patients and there are numerous stories that MDA does make a difference in saving lives. We also want to give interested Catholic health care providers the opportunity to serve either long or short term. We have extremely committed staff and physicians. It is an honor to be part of Mission Doctors.

I would like to express my concerns about my experience with Lay Mission Helpers and its associated missionary educators. Unfortunately, I witnessed behavior that I believe warrants attention, as it involves questionable and possibly illegal actions. Specifically, there were instances where false information was provided on work visa applications and federal or foreign documents in the name of the organization. These actions seem to fall under the category of deception and could put individuals and the organization at risk.<br><br>It is crucial for any mission organization, especially one operating in international contexts, to maintain transparency, integrity, and compliance with legal requirements. These actions contradict those principles, and I would caution any potential partners or supporters to be aware of the legal and ethical implications tied to such practices.<br><br>While I understand the desire to serve and spread positive work in communities, it is imperative that any organization or missionary group operates within the bounds of the law and with respect for the countries and communities they are working in. I hope that Lay Mission Helpers and its affiliates take the necessary steps to address these concerns and ensure their operations are above reproach.

The Evening Rainbow Home for provides health care for Elderly and infirm Catholic Sisters in an environment of a religious community. The Sisters have communal prayer, Mass, and the support of 13 Religious Congregations who banded together to address their needs. The surroundings are beautiful, the staff are attentive, dedicated and generous.

I question the character of ANY organization that asks people to give personal information THROUGH THE MAIL like credit card numbers with exp. date, CVV #, name & addresses! They'd rather sacrifice YOUR SAFETY than THEIR DONATIONS. I wouldn't trust the website or phones either. PLUS the addresses on the stuff they send in the mail, DO NOT MATCH the address where they want you to send your MONEY! And they made the "Saint" one that so many "can relate to," with love for flowers, nature, family, and pets! Hmm.. they left out chocolate! Hope they know that karma exists whether they believe in it or NOT. Stay safe and have a blessed holiday season. <br> <br>

The Dominicans and more recently the Dominican Sisters of Peace serve as a kind of north star for me. I count on their wisdom and prayer to identify who God is asking us to be in and for creation. I value their courage and risk taking. I know any gift I can provide them with bares a plenitude of other gifts.

I have worked at St. Dominic for a few months but already love it here. I have worked in the senior living field for many years at several companies. St. Dominic as a company has such a different environment from the corporate world. I love that the staff is really here for the residents and resident care comes first. I love the beautiful grounds here and the feeling of peace this place exudes. It is a rare gem when it comes to senior living facilities.

Deep in the word ministries began or became official in 1/15/2008 and have been doing prison ministry outline focus but also weddings , funerals, Bible studies and Zoom Bible study classes .

My interaction with the Ignatian Solidarity Network (ISN) started when I was a college student. My participation in their social justice and leadership programming directly impacted my college aspirations and later my professional ones. As an educator for over a decade now - I support my high school students in engaging with (ISN) programming and I've seen the empowering impact that it has on their understanding of social justice, leadership, and sense of self.

I have had the privilege of serving on many Kolbe prison retreats in north Texas and Oklahoma. This my favorite ministry because I’m able to see real change in the men who attend thanks to God and the Holy Spirit.<br>I encourage anyone considering participating on a team to take the leap of faith and go! It will change your perspective and could change your life.<br>YBIC <br>Mike G.

The Priests of the Sacred Heart are doing amazing work by sharing Jesus' deep love and compassion. Their global missions make a real difference for people in need all around the world. Beyond their outreach efforts, they’re also focused on strengthening the Catholic Church by nurturing future priests—a crucial need in today’s world. I wholeheartedly support their cause and admire their dedication.

This amazing foundation has been assisting our family since Avery's Diagnois. Avery remains in remission 3 years now but is left in intestinal failure and many other side effects of treatment with many Dr appointments still Richie Pervan Touch Foundation has assisted us with transportation, bills and soo many gifts for Avery and her 4 siblings. The support has been incredible and we can't thank them enough!

(My ex was awarded our 3 children, both vehicles, our home and even our dog.) I was a stay at home mother that took care of her family. I had zero income. 35 days after our divorce was finalized , i would be evicted. At the age of 42, I found myself homeless. I ended up meeting a friend whom I moved in with. Todd resided at the Washington county fairgrounds in Marietta, Ohio. Upon moving into the fairgrounds one of my landlords started to sexually harass me. He would send videos to me of him touching himself and he would make me a sexual proposal . When I declined his offer , my life would forever be changed. Immediately, he started harassing me. Every time I will leave my home , he would be in his truck , parked right across from my home , staring daggers at me. He then illegally shut off my water and my electric for over 4 months. He vandalized my home, cut my wires for hook up and would tell lies about me and would spread those lies to my neighbors and the rest of the tenants. After returning home on one day, my trailer had been moved away from the rest of the tenants. I was left out in the middle of a field with no water or electric from Sept. 1- December 24. However, the worse was yet to come… He would enlist one of his good friends, (my public defender would find this out) an Ohio state highway patrol officer to join in on the harassment against me. On 9/9/2018 a known Police Officer (good friends with my ex husband and I worked for this officer’s brother at the church we all attended) this officer would pull me over (7 blocks after he stated that I I ran a red light.) and falsify his report on me. Despite submitting to 3 breathalyzer tests (1st test was invalid. The next 2 tests both were 0.00. ) The officer would record that I refused, he stated that I refused all tests. I had 3 occupants that watched me comply to everything that was asked of me to do. I had no reason not to comply. I have my BAC results of that night.) he would charge me with 2 OVI’s and running a red light. I would then comply to a 50 min sobriety test that he failed me on. I would be arrested and my car was impounded. (They had my car impounded from 9/9/2018-5/3/2022). <br> <br>My case would go proceed to 10/31/2019 when a judge dismissed my charges and released my vehicle back to me. I take the signed document from the judge to the Impounding yard. The owners wife refused to release my vehicle to me even after presenting court documents. In the meantime, I call my public defender explaining to him what had occurred. Ray asked me to meet with him in his office on December 23, 2019. My roommate, Todd would take me to my attorneys office and would sit in with me and listen to everything that was said that very day. <br> <br>Christmas and New Years came and went . . I started to reach out to my attorney after the holidays was over. And I couldn’t seem to get I touch with him. I would call his office, leave messages with his secretaries, call his cell phone. I would email him and I even tried texting him. Nothing. No response. It wasn’t until March when I went to the court house, and requested my records, that I would find anything out. <br> <br>In Dec. 23,2019 after I had met with Ray, he dismissed himself as my attorney . Never once notifying me. I also saw in my file, that these charges the judge had just dismissed , I was being indicted on again. My indictment would list a certain medication that I had been prescribed around the same time I had been pulled over . This medication is a medication I have been prescribed since I was around 6-7 years old . This medication is for an anxiety disorder that I have been diagnosed with having since I was 5 years old. It is called episodic paroxysmal anxiety and another form of anxiety called G.A.D. (Generalized anxiety disorder, ) These anxiety disorders will cause me to have severe panic attacks. These attacks have left me hospitalized on several occasions throughout my life. <br> <br>I then continue reading my records. I was being indicted again on the same exact charge from 9/9/2018 that had just been dismissed!! The assistant Prosecutor would take it upon himself without a subpoena or a warrant from the judge, or any administrative permission to do (no authority to do either according to the distinctive guidelines of the Department of health and human services.) and obtain my personal health information. He would then persuade a jury to indict me on this prescription medication without any urine or blood ever being taken from me. I would serve from October 7,2021- February 13, 2022 incarcerated for this prescription medication. (That I was prescribed by more than one doctor over the course of my life. ) <br> <br>The health insurance, portability and accountability act of 1996 (HIPAA) public law 104-191 was enacted on August 21, 1996 . Sections 261 through 264 of HIPAA require the secretary of HHS to publicize standards for the electronic exchange, privacy and security of health information . In conjunction with HIPAA privacy rule, where it establishes national standards to protect individuals, medical records, and other individually, identical, health information, (collectively defined as protected health information) and applies to health, healthcare, clearing houses, and those healthcare providers. . This individual who requested my information with my pharmacy without anything from a judge, would maliciously not safeguard my personal information. (This was due to retaliation because I made a complaint with the Ohio disciplinary board regarding his unethical conduct, yet he continued being the prosecutor in this bogus charge) <br> <br>Since December, 19,20219. I have had four checking accounts, five credit cards, a 1400 $ stimulus check, a chase Visa Amazon credit card from synchrony bank taken from my locked mailbox,unknown individuals using my Social Security number, and committing felonies in Texas that used my Social Security number to commit crimes. I have lenders that are reporting that Iam applying for credit card that I’m not responsible for. I have had 6 data breaches. The vehicle that the judge had released to me, the state made me forfeit my rights to. I have spent over 80,000 in attorney fees . I was forced to take from a 401 K and then, I was required to pay over 7,000$ as a result of the early distribution and penalties. I had over 7,000$ court fines and costs, a 10 year licenses suspension, 2 years probation and I was incarcerated from 10/7/2021-2/14/2022. <br> <br>Unfortunately, this does involve 2 states. I was forced to move as a result of the harassment and retaliation. In combination of, the defamation of character. <br> <br>Immediately after moving from Ohio-WV is when I first started to experience the ramifications of this disclosure. All of my checking accounts, all of my credit cards and all my financial information was affected along with 6 different data breaches that would release my Health information Disability code, my name, my mailing address, my email address, all of my insurance information, My Social Security number, My date of birth, etc… <br> <br> <br>Now I’m without funds in order to hire an attorney And even if I could hire an attorney, most attorneys will not Take my case as a result of the individual being an assistant district attorney.. I have tried Legal Aid in both Ohio and West Virginia. I have tried six bar associations in Ohio, several in West Virginia, I have contacted the Ohio, Attorney General Office, and the West Virginia attorneys General Office, I have contacted my state representative and even my governor. In combination with Ohio. They won’t even look at my information without representation . I am 49 years old. How am I supposed to live the rest of my life? How am I supposed to get a job if I don’t have a vehicle how am I supposed to get a vehicle if I don’t have a job and how am I supposed to get a job? If every time they do background checks on me and accurate information pops up on my record ?? How is One supposed to get on With their life ? <br> <br>Current day, the fraud is still happening. It’s been occurring since December 19, 2019. Yesterday, I had my credit card company call me <br>And ask me if I had applied with their company for a credit card. I had not. <br> <br>I have been denied my due process. I have been , Discrimination against as a result of my disability. This is against both federal and state laws what is being done to me. A direct invasion of privacy, along with unethical behavior on the officer and both judges , also A Brady act violation. <br> <br>I would like to take my case to the Southern district of West Virginia out of Charleston Wv. The attorney I have for my data breaches is now not taking any of my phone calls or messages. This nightmare just won’t ever end. This is out of retaliation for getting some of the judicial workers subpoenaed to the Ohio Supreme Court and the Ohio disciplinary counsel for their unethical behavior . <br> <br>I just found out yesterday, that as a result of Ohio extracting me to West Virginia I now have a fugitive from justice charge on my record, which cannot ever be expunged. I am now a felon as a result of these bogus charges. I had planned on running for city council. I can no longer do that. <br> <br>Would <br>you please help me? <br> <br>Twila Martin <br>3045806438 <br>3800 4th Ave B <br>Vienna, WV 26105 <br> <br> <br>

My daughter found a place where she could feel comfortable and grow emotionally and educationally.

I have worked for over 10 years with both Labouré aspirants and the administrative team, and have participated in their fundraising training classes. The Labouré team is incredible, helping aspirants to achieve their fundraising goals so that they can be debt-free as they enter religious or priestly formation. The training and support they give is top-notch, and aspirants who work withing the system outlined are wildly successful, from my perspective. I have nothing but positive things to say about the Labouré Society!

I've worked with nonprofits helping women and children for the past 15-plus years. OLI is going above the call of duty to help mothers and their children. Each family has a private bedroom and access to a clean bathroom. OLI has a full-service laundry room to make sure that they have clean clothing. The agency meets families on their homeless journey and works hard to ensure that when they have their babies in a safe and healthy environment and are on the road to self-sufficiency. To achieve this goal, our mom has to embrace employment, job training, and in some cases completing their GED or High School. Studies show that these are not easy hurdles to jump over. OLI has a team behind each mother that is pushing her to greatness. OLI is a solid program to aid and assist women in wanting a better future for their families. We are not perfect, but we strive to show love and give our clients a new outlook on a new future.

Awful church. When I visited there was no one that talked to me when I walked in, and after I started a conversation with people, I was told by a couple of people that they liked to lie and spread false information. Apparently someone got kicked out after their husband died because she wanted to have a potluck for the people coming to the funeral. Doesn’t seem like a great place to get involved.

The Spiritus mission is awesome..Every fall a group of young men and women gather together at the center for a1 yr commitment to serve our local parishes by giving retreat opportunities to students of all ages. They allow the Holy Spirit to work through them..it is very rewarding to watch the missionaries grow in their faith as well as the Parish communities . They are very inspirational to all.<br>

Olancho Aid Foundation fosters an experience to volunteers which touches them emotionally, spiritually, and physically. It gently challenges people to grow and broaden their concerns and perspectives globally. I was lovingly encouraged to examine the day to day concerns and worries I have in my comfortable middle income America world versus those in Honduras. I was changed forever because I experienced a heart felt connection with the impoverished Honduran community. It leaves a lasting impression on your heart that remains forever.....changing me to be a better me and you to be a better you.
