SECURITY

Catholic Charities Brooklyn and Queens is grateful for the generous donations that help us continue to assist our neighbors in need, and understands the importance of protecting your personal information.

Rest assured that giving a tax deductible donation to Catholic Charities is safe. Credit card information is protected by a reputable security company, and numbers are never stored.

On our donation pages, please make note of the domain name in your Web site address bar. The name there begins with “https,” which indicates that the page is encrypted. Encryption actually makes your online donation more secure than using a credit card in physical form at a store, restaurant, or any other place of business.

If you have any questions regarding the security of online donations, please contact us.
