What an incredible experience! 💙
Thank you to everyone who joined us for the Catholic Charities USA People of Hope Mobile Museum in Richmond. Together, we celebrated the power of faith, compassion and service while experiencing stories of hope and learning more about the realities facing our neighbors in need.

We are grateful to everyone who visited, listened, connected and shared in this special experience. Every day, we see what is possible when people come together to serve our neighbors with dignity, compassion and love.

The museum may have moved on to its next stop, but the opportunity to be hope continues. 💙

Today, we pause to remember.
Twenty-five years after September 11, 2001, we honor the lives lost, the families forever changed, and the courage of the first responders and all who served in the face of tragedy.

We pray for those who continue to carry the weight of that day. May God grant them comfort, strength and peace, and may we continue to choose compassion, unity and hope.

We will never forget. 🙏
