With the different problems and difficulties that the world is facing now, it is important to have organizations, like NGOs, that can make the planet a better place to live.

For today’s episode, the Catholic Investment Services podcast and Dan Coyne welcome Sister Mary Louise Stubbs and Kathleen Bissa of the Daughters of Charity International Project Services to talk more about what their organization is, what their goals and missions are, and the projects that they have. They also share what the impact of the organizations have and why it is different from other NGOs. Sister Mary Louise and Kathleen give a run-through of how the process is: Starting from receiving the donations, planning and implementing, and choosing which project to use the funds for, and how you can be a part of the solution to make a difference in someone’s life.
