Mission: As part of a hundred-year tradition of charity, Christ Church Cathedral established three independent 501(c)(3) nonprofits (Cathedral Health Ministries, Brigid’s Hope, and The Beacon) over the span of the last decade. It was recently determined that banding together under one mission would provide a more streamlined, effective administration of programs and funding, benefiting our clients and community. Thus, in the summer of 2007 these three entities merged into a single nonprofit organization, Cathedral Health and Outreach Ministries (CHOM). CHOM has five separate programs:
The Beacon
Cathedral Clinic
Espíritu de Salud Mobile Clinic
Brigid’s Hope
Cathedral Justice Project
CHOM was created with a vision for a comprehensive ministry addressing hunger, health, hygiene, clothing, employment, legal and housing issues. Located in the Cathedral’s John S. Dunn Outreach Center, CHOM is not required to pay rent, utilities or facilities costs; the Cathedral’s generosity allows CHOM to dedicate the majority of funds to direct services for the homeless and indigent. In fact, eighty-nine percent of every CHOM dollar spent goes directly to program services.
