About Us

  Little Way In Action was founded by Catalina and Ana and is supported by a committed administrative team. Our work is guided by a Board of Directors that provides oversight, direction, and stewardship of our 501(c)(3) nonprofit. 

Formerly known as Little Ladies of Charity,  Little Way In Action

was founded when the pandemic caused sisters Catalina and Ana to reflect on their many blessings and become determined to help those less fortunate. Without a clear direction or beneficiary, these sisters simply sought to fulfill St. Therese of Lisieux’s call to praise God in whatever little way possible, despite their young ages. Like St. Therese, these Little Ladies were determined to contribute in their own little ways. 

When they received a leaflet from Catholic Charities asking for Easter Basket donations for those in need, the girls immediately took action. They stuffed 300 Easter eggs and over 50 Easter Baskets for charity. The girls recognized their gratification from acts of charity far exceeded any gift in a basket or under a tree, and so the Little Way In Action was formed.  

  Little Way In Action empowers young people to serve their communities through volunteerism and charitable initiatives, inspiring them to live St. Thérèse of Lisieux’s belief that small acts of love can make a meaningful difference.

 We honor the power of small, everyday acts to create meaningful and lasting change. We are committed to empowering young people to lead with compassion, to serve with joy, and to recognize that everyone belongs and has something valuable to offer. Through integrity, responsible stewardship, and strong community partnerships, we work together to strengthen communities—one small act of love at a time.
