ALEXANDRIA, Va., Oct. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — As forecasters warn that Hurricane Isaias will bring devastating winds and dangerous storm surges to the Gulf Coast, Catholic Charities USA (CCUSA), the official domestic relief agency of the Catholic Church in the United States, has launched a dedicated disaster relief donation campaign (ccusa.online/isaias). One hundred percent of all funds raised will be allocated to local Catholic Charities agencies, which will provide critical relief — including shelter, food and other humanitarian aid — to displaced and suffering members of their communities.

“Our sisters and brothers along the Gulf Coast need our prayers and support as this powerful storm threatens their communities,” CCUSA President and CEO Kerry Alys Robinson said. “The staff and volunteers of local Catholic Charities agencies throughout the region will be there to bring comfort and hope to their neighbors in need. Please join us in providing critical aid to the immediate and long-term relief efforts.”

CCUSA and its member agencies around the country have a long history of rapidly mobilizing following disasters not only to meet the immediate needs but also to provide critical, long-term support to communities as they rebuild. Every year, thanks to the generosity of thousands of concerned donors, the Catholic Charities network responds to roughly 60 disasters, from hurricanes and tornadoes to fires and floods. 

To support those impacted by Hurricane Isaias, please make a gift today.
