Please join us for a one-of-a-kind exhibit highlighting the transformative power of service. The museum features first-person accounts of service and a look at how poverty affects people in New Jersey. Created by Catholic Charities USA with a grant from the Lily Foundation, this storytelling initiative brings to life the critical work being done by Catholic Charities around the nation.

The museum is free and open to the public. Private and group tours are available. For more information about scheduling a visit, contact Tracy Gillespie at [email protected] or by calling 609-394-5181 x1126.

Meet Our Storytellers:

Catholic Charities, Diocese of Trenton is extremely proud that two members of its team are featured in the exhibit.

Arnold Valentin, Jr. is our Director of Community Services. His story about helping a young mother with cancer captures the essence of the work his team does, providing support and hope to those who need it most.

Mary Pettrow is our Director of Children and Family Services. Mary recounts meeting someone she assisted in a domestic violence safe house years later and realizing the profound impact she had on him and his family.
