Art contest

Any 7th through 12th grader that belongs to a Catholic parish or Catholic School may enter.

The goals are:

  • To learn about actual ways in which poor people are ending poverty by working together in their local communities.
  • To reflect on Catholic social teaching on poverty and the Gospel call to put our faith in action
  • To develop original artwork focused on the contest theme, with a special emphasis on how low-income people are developing long-term solutions that can break the cycle of poverty.

Each contestant or team of contestants will have the opportunity to interact with CCHD-funded groups to learn more about the reality of poverty and the important work of CCHD.
