Sponsor a Step. Change a Life.
Join us in supporting Fr. Gary’s journey from Pope Leo’s boyhood home in Dolton, IL to the Statue of Liberty — a 1.65 million–step pilgrimage of faith and solidarity called “Stepping Up and Speaking Out for Immigrant Children.” Each step represents a prayer and a promise to stand with immigrant families in constant fear of separation. You can sponsor 1, 5, 25, 100, 500, 1,000 or more steps, with 100% of your donation going to strengthen and expand Catholic Charities’ programming for immigrants and their families -- providing direct financial support, housing, mental health care, food, and emergency aid. Every step helps provide stability, hope, and care for those facing unimaginable loss. Together, we can ensure that no child walks alone.
