CRS Rice Bowls provide funds for Catholic Relief Services to help those around the world in times of need and crisis.  In addition to Rice Bowl collection boxes being handed out at our Friday Lenten Speakers Series, they are also handed out after Masses during Lent so everyone can participate. You can donate any time of the year as well:  crsricebowl.org
