The Saint Frances Xavier Cabrini Family Accompaniment and Emergency Assistance Fund, known as the Cabrini Fund, provides temporary emergency assistance to immigrant families in the Diocese of Pittsburgh facing extraordinary hardship.

Established by Bishop Mark A. Eckman and administered by Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Pittsburgh, the fund responds to a growing need that parish pastors say now exceeds what any single parish can meet alone. Across the diocese’s six counties, immigrant families are facing sudden crises, including the loss of a household’s provider, unpaid rent or utility bills, urgent medical needs, and fear and uncertainty for their children.

Do you know someone who could benefit from this fund? 
Families in need should speak with their pastor or a member of their parish staff. The parish will help identify what is needed and refer the family to Catholic Charities, which will review each request and work to deliver assistance quickly. Catholic Charities will ask only for the information needed to help and will safeguard what families share.
