Dennis Gibson, chair of the Light the World Committee, presented a check to Laura Foley of Catholic Charities of Oregon April 7.
The funds came from donors who gave via the Light the World Giving Machines set up in Washington Square Mall during the holiday season. Light the World is an initiative of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. LDS groups have been major supporters of Catholic Charities works, including with food supplies and volunteer power.
