Catherine House Trust was instituted by the Board, as the fundraising arm of Catherine House Inc., in November 2003. Its primary function is to raise funds, and exercise good stewardship of these funds, for the benefit of the work of Catherine House Inc.
Trust members give most generously of their time not only in attending the formal monthly, meetings but also by their participation in two important sub-committees namely: Fundraising and Promotion, and Finance and Governance.
Members work in a voluntary capacity, and each of them brings a wealth of expertise and generosity of spirit to the work that they do. They display a keen determination to raise the funds needed to deliver the type of innovative programs, and services, that will most benefit the women who use the services of Catherine House Inc.
