United Catholic Appeal

The United Catholic Appeal is one of the clearest expressions of what it means to be one Church. Through our shared commitment, we Go Forth to bring Christ’s presence into every life, every home, and every corner of our archdiocese.
~ Archbishop Charles C. Thompson

Rooted in the mission of the Archdiocese of Indianapolis, this annual effort provides essential support for ministries that form disciples, care for those in need, and strengthen Catholic life across central and southern Indiana.
Through the Appeal, we Go Forth together—funding vocations and Catholic education, supporting parish life, and extending Christ’s love to our neighbors, both Catholic and non-Catholic alike. It’s a powerful way we live out our call to be the hands and feet of Jesus in the world.
We invite you to be part of this mission. Watch the stories. See the impact. And join us in building a stronger, more vibrant Church—one act of generosity at a time.

Why it matters?
There are countless needs within our communities, and they don’t follow a season—they persist all year long. Families are seeking shelter, food, and clothing. Individuals are battling addiction. Children long for the opportunity to receive a Catholic education. Mothers need essential supplies for their babies. Mental health care is crucial and often out of reach. And many seniors need a safe, supportive place to go while their loved ones are at work.
Thanks to the compassion and generosity of donors like you, Catholic Charities is able to respond to these needs with critical services across every area. As Christians, we are called to be the hands and feet of Christ in the world.
