February 2, 2022 – Sarasota
Catholic Charities Ball to be held at the Ritz-Carlton to benefit and raise awareness about the seniors, adults, families, and children affected by homelessness since the pandemic. This year’s theme is “Together Again” being thankful to be able to continue to support those that need it especially due to the pandemic.
The 2022 Catholic Charities Ball will feature a testimonial presentation from two families who were able to overcome, succeed and ultimately give back to their communities as a direct result of the support they’ve received by the community in a united effort to alleviate homelessness.
In the last year, the need for housing in our communities has increased by 117 percent from last year. Thanks to generous support, Catholic Charities provided shelter to 1,534 individuals, and food to 209,784 individuals, increasing food pantry services by 33 percent.
Honored guests attending are the Most Rev. Frank J. Dewane, Bishop of the Diocese of Venice, and emcee, Ray Collins “voice” of the Sarasota Open pro tennis tournament and former Fox 13 news anchor.
