Norma Garza-Ramirez and Laura Duenas of Catholic Charities share the increase in requests for aid at their office - even before the SNAP cuts - for food, coats, help with utilities and rent, etc. They also refer people to the myriad of resources available in the event that they are not able to help.

Those wishing to help can contact their local Catholic Charities office and contribute towards gift cards or other needs in your area. For information about Catholic Charities or to find an office near you, go to www.cathchar.com.

The Sioux City Office phone number is (712) 252-4547.
