Family Fast Day
This Harvest, we are launching a series of online events around Family Fast Day from 8-11 October so that we can come together and bring hope and help to those who are most in need.
A Harvest like no other
This is a Harvest like no other as many families face chronic food shortages, malnutrition and poverty as the result of coronavirus. With your support, we can help people all over the world rebuild their lives.
Join our online events
This Harvest, CAFOD has something for everyone. Join us with your school, parish, friends and family.
As well as the events below, we will also be holding a live Mass on 9 October.
