Mother Teresa Women's Giving Circle

BECOME A MEMBER TODAY AND MAKE AN IMPACT ON WOMEN, CHILDREN, and FAMILIES LOCALLY!

Our Mission: Through collective giving, collaboration, and sharing of faith, the Mother Teresa Women's Giving Circle seeks to promote philanthropy that empowers women, compels action and glorifies God.

For the past nine years, the Mother Teresa Women’s Giving Circle — a ministry of the Catholic Foundation of South Louisiana — has united women of faith to transform lives through collective giving.

Through your generosity and shared compassion, our members have granted out more than $650,000 to local nonprofits serving women, children, and families throughout the Diocese of Houma-Thibodaux.

This #iGiveCatholic Giving Tuesday, we’re inviting all 200 members — and women across our community — to come together in faith and generosity.

💛 Our 2025 iGiveCatholic Goal

Goal: 200 Members Strong for Women, Children & Families

Your gift this Giving Tuesday helps us expand our reach and grow our circle of compassion. Every contribution strengthens our ability to respond to the needs of those most vulnerable in our diocese.

Consider joining or renewing your membership, or even gifting a membership this Christmas to your mother, grandmother, sister, or friend — and together, let’s continue Mother Teresa’s mission to “do small things with great love.”
