Cross Catholic Outreach | 2026 Food Packing Event

September 19 - Holy Redeemer Campus

Volunteer Shifts: 9:00am-12:30pm, 12:30pm-4:00pm

This fall we have a great opportunity to help starving children through Cross Catholic Outreach, a Catholic Ministry that partners with bishops, priests, religious and lay workers to provide food, water, housing, education, orphan support, medical care, microenterprise and disaster relief – and the love of our Lord Jesus Christ – to the poorest of the poor in over 30 countries around the world.

Scenes from the 2025 Food Packing Event

Thanks to the incredible generosity of our Columbia River Catholic community, we raised the funds needed to pay for the food for our food packing event. Now we are asking for your help in actually packing 120,000 meals for our starving brothers and sisters around the world. We need 225 volunteers for the morning shift and 225 more for the afternoon shift; you can sign up for both if you so desire. To sign up, just click on the “Volunteer!” button below.

Every $300.00 will provide 1,000 nutritious meals and $90.00 will provide 300 nutritious meals. If you would still like to donate, click on the Donate button.

Thank you for your prayerful consideration of helping this event this year. Your support and prayers truly give these families hope.
