St. Francis Outreach
Saint Francis Outreach is a charitable organization in the Diocese of Kalamazoo. Our mission is to do God's work by improving the lives of individuals and families in our community through outreach services providing free food and clothing.
Through positive reationships and programs, adults and children in need have received benefits that have impacted their lives in a healthy and prayerful way.
Parishioners from Sacred Heart of Mary Church and Holy Maternity of Mary Chruch, along with volunteer members of the community, have made it possible for Saint Francis Outreach to continue transforming lives throughout the year.
The Pokagon Band of Potawatomi Indians was the first federally-recongnized organization to assist Saint Francis Outreach in funding the Food BackPack Program feeding food insecure children in the Dowagiac school system.
Saint Francis Outreach is a 501(c)(3) Catholic Charitable organization affiliated with the Roman Catholic Diocese of Kalamazoo.
