The OLPH Men’s Club is dedicated to enriching the parish and wider community through a wide array of programs, including the School Athletic Fund, Teacher’s Fund, Classroom Technology upgrades, Religious Education, After School Clubs, and Roundball. The Club also provides key support to the Youth Group, Endowment Fund, Sr. Paulanne’s Needy Family Fund, and the parish’s Capital Campaign, helping ensure meaningful spiritual, educational, and philanthropic impact.

Their year-round care closets provide essential health and hygiene items, helping keep kids in school, preserve dignity, and promote equity—guided by the belief that small acts of grace can empower future leaders and strengthen communities from within.
