Doonan Tax Services, a New York-based firm, works with clients in the tri-state area as well as in Texas, Florida, and California. Dedicated to helping its community, Doonan Tax Services makes annual donations to Catholic Charities.
In November, Catholic Charities USA (CCUSA), an organization dedicated to serving people in need, provided an additional $2 million to Caritas de Puerto Rico to assist with recovery and relief efforts following Hurricane Maria.
CCUSA CEO and president, Sister Donna Markham, presented the support during a trip to Puerto Rico. While there, she also met with Padre Enrique Camacho, executive director of Caritas de Puerto Rico, along with clients aided by the organization.
Her trip underscored CCUSA’s support for Caritas de Puerto Rico and its work following Hurricane Maria. Prior to its new award, CCUSA had provided Caritas de Puerto Rico with $1.5 million in donations. Caritas de Puerto Rico will use this funding to address four objectives:
1. Managing the distribution of supplies from warehouses to neighborhood
2. Setting up disaster case management teams
3. Establishing a health clinic
4. Providing mental health counselors
Both grants were made possible thanks to donations from individuals across the country.
