An appeal on behalf of The Crusade of Rescue by the Most Rev. the Archbishop of Westminster

The Crusade of Rescue is a charity whose object it is to give a home to orphan and destitute Roman Catholic children. It is part of the national work of child rescue, co-operating with all the child rescue societies of the country for the saving and the helping of the nation's homeless little ones. Founded in 1859, it has saved thousands of children from misery and want, and has given them a home and a start in life, either in England or in Canada.

It depends entirely on voluntary contributions for its maintenance, and needs at least £25,000 a year to feed, clothe, and educate its large family.

Contributions will be grateful acknowledged and should be addressed to the Most Rev. the Archbishop of Westminster [address removed]
