Collaborators
In the Franciscan tradition of helping those on the margins of society, we collaborate with organizations whose mission and values reflect ours to meet the needs of our time through prayer, relationship-building, and the sharing of resources.
Every month we feature one organization within each of the following five categories representing areas of importance to the Wheaton Franciscans: Care of Creation, Woman and Children, Health & Dental, Refugees & Immigrants, and Other Purposes. Return to Collaborators page>>
