Your donation makes a difference
Charis is a doorway into the Catholic Church for many young adults. We are a bridge of connection. We offer retreats, days of prayer, evenings of teaching, service trips, pilgrimages and other venues to bring the light of Jesus Christ to today’s religious seekers. The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops officially recognized Charis Ministries for demonstrating "Best Practices for Catholic Young Adults" in America.


We are grateful for the generosity of benefactors that allows the work of Charis to continue and to grow. Donors and sponsors include our program participants, individuals, Catholic institutions, and private foundations. Join us in investing in a future of hope for young adults. Donate today at any level or contact us to discuss a donation appropriate for you.
