Caritas of Waco provides urgent support to people in need through its emergency services and case management programs. On average, the agency helps 7,500 unduplicated individuals every month and the majority of clients live in Waco-McLennan County.
Since the pandemic in March, the agency has moved its food pantry service to a drive-through model to accommodate the increased need for services and to practice social distancing.

Caritas is the first Waco nonprofit to be selected by Kendra Scott as a National Nonprofit Day partner.
