CCFD Terre Solidaire

CCFD-Terre Solidaire acts against all forms of injustice, in more than 70 countries, and particularly against hunger. To do this, it proposes and supports partnerships with local actors: agroecology, defence of rights, fight against deforestation, promotion of gender equality…

This commitment to greater justice and solidarity is rooted in the Gospel and the social teaching of the Church.

In our parish, it participates in the Divajeu conference in early February, and organises various Lenten actions to support international efforts.

Secours Catholique

Based on the social doctrine of the Catholic Church and the knowledge of people in precarious situations, the primary experts on poverty, driven by volunteer commitment and donations, the association works to ensure everyone has a dignified place in society. It contributes to building a sustainable, just and fraternal world.

Within the Caritas Internationalis network, it supports projects worldwide. In France, its priority is access to housing, education and employment, as well as combating isolation.

In our parish, Secours Catholique visits people in difficulty, organises a meeting café, and provides financial support in exceptional circumstances. A dynamic team has just opened a solidarity shop: “a local shop offering low-priced clothing and accessories, and also providing a warm space for exchange and sharing.”

Order of Malta – France

Between outreach, first aid, medico-social establishments and international campaigns, the Order of Malta France is driven daily by a constant search for Charity. Faced with needs, the association does everything possible to provide aid to those most in distress.

Fighting exclusion, helping the sick, elderly and dependent, precarious individuals or those with Alzheimer's, or helping children and adults with disabilities or autism spectrum disorders… the association helps the most vulnerable in various ways.

In our parish, she works in particular on an annual collection against leprosy on the last weekend of January. (It is also possible to participate in their breakfast distribution in Valence)
