Intrepid Church Reporter at Campaign for Human Development awards:

Good show Sept. 1 at St. Stanislaus Kostka School, where 100 or more gathered for awarding of Chicago Campaign for Human Development funds. Reps of awardee organizations trooped up one after the other to be interviewed by Father “Rocky” Hoffman of Relevant Radio. It was a parade of do-gooders looking good. The hall exuded benevolence, even as a few hard-core brothers and sisters of the Alinsky-style persuasion more or less lurked in the shadows.

  1. Truly appreciated this reporting. Thank you, Jim.
    Perhaps there should be a coalition of Catholic small business people to lobby our city, county, state and Washington for more fair treatment. In the long run, the poor would benefit far more than they do by these Alinsky-style groups who at heart detest the middle class, Catholic or not.
