News station ABC7-New York applauds Franciscan Charities for its pandemic hard work

News station ABC7-New York visits Franciscan Charities to highlight our hard work during the pandemic.

Folks are calling us names!

Scrappy. Nimble. Resilient. Small but mighty. Those are just some of the words we’ve heard from others this past year when describing Franciscan Charities.

Must be Santa!

We lit up our neighborhood with smiles, songs, snacks and toys this past weekend at our annual Toy Drive! Children and adults alike celebrated the arrival of the man in the red suit, a bright and jolly appearance during this otherwise trying year.

Friends helping friends

Help our friends at Eva's Village carry out their critical services during the pandemic.

This holiday season, spread joy.

For the folks we see on our food lines and through our outreach – the vulnerable and underserved in Newark – the holidays have often been sparse. For them, a warm coat, a special meal or one new toy or gift is a treasure. And the smiles we see on their faces during our winter coat drives, holiday toy drives and Christmas Eve dinners complete with Holiday Express entertainment are worth millions.
