Cathedral Outreach Program

Social Action Committee of Grace and Holy Trinity Cathedral

The work of the Social Action Committee includes a range of programs through which we assist — both directly and indirectly — people in need. But an important part of that work is to provide a conduit by which you can join in as a part of this community in Christ, reflecting His love through the loving help that you provide to others.

In these programs, we cannot and do not provide comprehensive solutions. We lament with Christ that the poor may very well always be with us. Rather, we touch one person — one child — one family in need at a time, doing what we are able to do. Join us in reaching out to a community in need — in being a source of assistance to those who so desperately require it


Rent Payments Program
Mission: to provide “bridge” assistance for the working poor. Individuals and families who are living on the edge financially can find themselves in a crisis because of something as simple as an unexpected medical bill or car repair. Such individuals can apply to us for assistance in meeting their rent to prevent eviction. Find out more about the program.

Foster Care Project
Mission: to provide whatever assistance is possible to children within the foster care system, and to those transitioning out of the system.

Maison de Naissance / Friends of MN / H.E.L.P.
Mission: to provide assistance to mothers and new born infants in Haiti, in the form of a “well-baby” program and the birthing center Maison de Naissance (translated from the French as “House of Birth”). Find out more about the Friends of MN.

AIDS Walk Kansas City
Mission: once each year to help raise needed funds for local organizations that help fulfill basic life needs of people and families stricken with AIDS.

Necessary Dreams
Mission: to provide an opportunity for the membership of the Cathedral to assist with the needs of people and families in crisis, through Dream Works in Kansas City. Find out more about The Dream Works.
