Today is the birthday of Pope Francis, who passed away earlier this year. On this day and in honor of International Migrants Day, which we celebrate tomorrow, we reflect on his words and message:


“Migrants are our brothers and sisters in search of a better life, far away from poverty, hunger, exploitation and the unjust distribution of the planet’s resources which are meant to be equitably shared by all. Don’t we all want a better, more decent and prosperous life to share with our loved ones?”

📚 Help write a story of change this #GivingTuesday!
Picture this: A truck pulls up to the National School for Girls in Haiti. Box after box of colorful books is unloaded. Students gather in the courtyard, flipping through pages—finally holding their own books instead of sharing.
Then, one brave student steps forward to read aloud. Her classmates cheer. Soon, more voices join in—a chorus of pride and joy.
This moment was possible because donors like you stepped in. 170 schools received books and supplies! Your gift today can multiply this joy—providing education, food, health … and hope for children around the world.
