Albert and Felicite’s success story shows how your donation helps strengthen families.

Albert and Felicite came to Catholic Charities of Idaho (CCI) looking to build a more secure future for their children. The family of six was struggling to get by and lacked stable, safe housing. Referred by their local Catholic parish, Albert and Felicite enrolled in CCI’s Pathways to Economic Stability Program and attended financial literacy classes to learn about banking, saving and understanding credit. The family saved diligently for two years, depositing money into a special savings account in which donor and grant funds matched two dollars for every dollar they saved. The family’s hard work was rewarded in the fall when they made a down payment on their first permanent home! What’s more, the family contributed over 500 hours of labor to build their house, working with Habitat for Humanity volunteers. Albert and Felicite not only have a new home for their family, but they feel a special connection to their neighbors. By volunteering at their parish, growing produce for the hungry and mentoring struggling families at CCI, the family now gives back to the community that assisted them during their time of need.
