Caritas Manila is the social service and development ministry of the Archdiocese of Manila.

Caritas Manila is one of the largest church-based nonprofit organizations in the Philippines. It is a Spirit-led community committed to serving the poor—the “least, last, and lost” in society.

Its programs are geared towards total human development, poverty alleviation, and the creation of a Christian community with a strong social conscience.
