​

The COURAGE Program is a very special and unique ministry based at Our Lady at St. Germaine Parish. COURAGE is for single-mothers with infants and/or children under 6 years of age. The COURAGE Program is totally dependent upon donations. Through the generosity of so many, we have been able to provide these services since 1980 and have been able to help over 15,000 women and children.

We provide a variety of services, including:
  • All necessary baby-care items
  • Baby food and formula
  • Diapers
  • Free counseling
  • Educational programs
  • Monthly meetings
  • Social opportunities
  • Financial assistance.
  • We also have food, vision and dental programs.


For more information about donating, volunteering or becoming a member, please call our office at (708) 636-8001, email us at thecourageprogram@yahoo.com or visit our website: courageprogram.org
