Reporting Results: The Hartford Bishops' Foundation

Changing Our World recently collaborated with The Hartford Bishops’ Foundation by leading an organized response to the COVID-19 pandemic, quickly setting up the Emergency Response Fund (ERF) to help offset the significant impact on parish life, Catholic schools, and social service programs that resulted when churches in the Archdiocese of Hartford were forced to close their doors through much of the Lent and Easter seasons.

In a matter of weeks, more than $500,000 was raised for the ERF that will be distributed as grants to help address the urgent needs of parishes throughout central Connecticut.
