Ladies of Charity of Chattanooga Celebrates Banner Year Members
of the Ladies of Charity of Chattanooga (LOCC) gathered at St. Jude
Catholic Churchs Siener Hall on Sun., Nov. 16 to celebrate
one of the 45-year-old ministrys most successful years. More
than 60 volunteers attended the fall meeting, which celebrated the
groups many accomplishments, including a $250,000 capital
campaign to purchase and renovate the new ministry headquarters
on Rossville Boulevard. LOCC moved into the new location in January
2008. Within the first six months, the ministry doubled sales in
its Greater Good Thrift Store, became debt-free with the sale of
its Main St. property, and increased its direct and in-kind social
assistance for people who fall through the cracks of the community's
existing social service network. LOCC celebrated its more than 300
member volunteers whose generous support and tireless hours of service
made the ministry's growth possible. (Above) LOCC volunteer Bill Gallagher (l) and Past President Jackie Smith (r) congratulate Layette Team Chair Pat Wright (c) for a record year. Wright's team has stocked, assembled and delivered 67 layettes for needy new mothers to date in 2008. The layettes contain clothing and baby supplies designed to meet the needs of a newborn for the first six weeks of life.
