Empty your CRS Rice Bowl, and GIVE Online!

Don’t worry that you cannot return your CRS Rice Bowl to your parish or school. We have another way you can give! Through CRS Rice Bowl, our Catholic community in the United States does something amazing each Lent. We come together to practice prayer, fasting and almsgiving—and by doing so we help lift families and communities out of poverty. Rice Bowl helps us to be in solidarity with our brothers and sisters in need. 

Where Does Our Lenten Rice Bowl Money Go? 100% of CRS Rice Bowl contributions support projects for the poor both overseas and here in the Archdiocese of Santa Fe. 25% of the contributions fund local poverty and hunger alleviation programs in dioceses across the United States.

From the Rice Bowl money collected from 82 parishes, schools and other organizations during Lent 2019, $19,160.00 went to 18 local organizations that work to alleviate hunger and homelessness in our Archdiocese: Where Does Our Lenten Rice Bowl Money Go

The Archdiocese of Santa Fe entered into Chapter 11 Reorganization during the first week of December, 2018. The utmost concern is for the victims of abuse. Our prayers are with them. The Catholic Relief Services (CRS) Rice Bowl is NOT part of the Chapter 11 filing. 100% of your donations go to people in need in our Archdiocese and across the globe where CRS works. Christ’s loving work must endure through this.

 Thank you for continuing to support these efforts.
