Little Children's Aid is a non-profit organization that was
founded in 1907 to provide for the children left homeless and
orphaned by the San Francisco earthquake and fire. The
original agency and its volunteer auxiliary were the
forerunner of today's Catholic Charities CYO of San Francisco
and The Auxiliary of Little Children's Aid. In 1949, Little
Children's Aid Junior Auxiliary separated from the original
group in an effort ot expand its outreach.
Our fundraising efforts help support the children's programs
of Catholic Charities CYO. In particular, we support Rita da
Cascia, St. Joseph’s Village and Mission Day Care. Through
the volunteer efforts of our members, we work in conjunction
with the Program Directors of our targeted residential and
service programs. LCA Jrs. organizes projects that directly
benefit each individual in the facility.
Little Children's Aid Junior Auxiliary is a volunteer organization that
works with Catholic Charities CYO in support of their chairities.
Rooted in the Catholic faith-based values of charity, justice and accountability, the mission of Catholic Charities CYO is to serve and advocate for the poor, the sick, the distressed, children, youth, families,
immigrants and seniors, regardless of their faith. All money
contributed to Catholic Charities CYO directly supports programs
in San Francisco, Marin and San Mateo Counties. To learn more,
