In the heart of the Church we serve together, guided by the values of solidarity, sharing, co-responsibility, participation, respect and common purpose. That is how to be Caritas.
Caritas as a faith-based organisation, with a specific mission to attend to the poorest and the neediest, assisting in humanitarian emergencies and helping to spread charity and justice in the world in the light of the Gospel and of the teaching of the Catholic Church (CI Statutes, art.1.3).
We work with other Catholic ministries under the diocese of Penang. You may visit us at Pusat Keuskupan Katolik, located at Macalister road in Georgetown, Penang.
You can also find Caritas in some Catholic church. It is a work in progress to set up parish-level Caritas in all 29 parishes.
Your support is the life blood of our humanitarian work. The generosity of kind everyday people is what makes a difference to the lives of vulnerable communities.
You can donate to us here.
Caritas is the charitable arm of the Roman Catholic Church. It is to spearhead the church’s social mission, to respond to humanitarian crisis, promote integral human development and advocate on the causes of poverty and violence.
Caritas Penang comes under the jurisdiction of The Titular Roman Catholic Bishop of Penang.
