CWN Editor's Note: The Pope has donated 1M Euro ($1.14M) to Jesus the Divine Worker Fund to assist “the great number of daily and occasional workers, to those with fixed-term contracts that have not been renewed, to those who are paid by the hour, to interns, domestic workers, small entrepreneurs, self-employed workers, especially those in sectors most affected [by the pandemic] and their related industries. Many are fathers and mothers who struggle to set the table for their children.”
