Description
Job Description
Job DescriptionDescription:Our History
In 1879, Father Bernard Donnelly established Mount St. Bernard's Orphanage in Kansas City. With that one act of faith, hope and charity, many lives — and a community — were transformed.
And, from that humble beginning a strong tradition of compassionate care and social service took root, thrived, and grew to become Catholic Charities of Kansas City-St. Joseph. Catholic Charities empowers at risk people to create a pathway out of poverty by alleviating their immediate crises to create stability; then providing robust support to lift them to dignity and self-reliance.
Today, millions of lives have been transformed, in the communities we serve. We have office locations in the Kansas City metro-area, St. Joseph, Missouri, a Food Pantry in Kansas City and another in Cameron, Missouri, while serving a 27-county region.
