"A heartfelt thanks to these wonderful individuals who provide witness of God's preferential love for the poor and vulnerable in our society," said Father Larry Snyder, president of Catholic Charities USA, in a press release. "They are truly doing God's work, delivering help and creating hope day-in and day-out, without seeking anything in return."According to Catholic Charities USA, every year more than 200,000 people lend their time and talent to local Catholic Charities agencies which serve nearly 9 million people annually.
