A detailed look at what the Ignatian Volunteer Corps accomplished in 2024, from fundraising to membership to programming.
“I don’t know what we’d do without our IVC volunteers,” says St. Rita’s principal Gina Olsen. “They provide high-caliber support of Catholic education in classrooms, on the playground, and in the library.”
IVC Partner Agency Catholic Charities’ Mother of Mercy (MoM) Free Medical Clinics is bringing better health – and opportunities for a healthier future – to Prince William County, Virginia, residents in need. The clinics – located in Manassas and Woodbridge – provide no-cost basic medical care to low-income adults who are uninsured or under-insured. “Our patients are at or below 300% of the federal poverty level, and the majority require interpretation services,” says Program Director Alexandra Luevano. “We consider ourselves their medical home.”
