Hunger does not take a vacation this summer!St. Ann is pleased to be part of the 11th Annual Summer in the City Campaign to support the John S. Mulholland Family Foundation.

Proceeds of the Drive will support 9 food pantries in Catholic church pantries in the city’s most-distressed neighborhoods.
Please bring your donation to the sub-sacristy of non-perishable food to by or before all Masses on August 24-25.
