The Holy Cross Community spent the entire month of October participating in our Buy for the Border campaign coordinated by the Holy Cross Social Justice office and the Peer Ministry class. The Sisters of the Holy Cross are assisting Catholic Charities of the Rio Grande Valley who have a respite center that works directly with those at the border. During the campaign clubs, teams, classes, advisories and other groups created unique ways to raise money for items on an Amazon wish list to support the respite center. As funds were raised, Holy Cross purchased the items to go directly to the center. More than $1,500 worth of items were purchased and sent.
