Ahead of the Al Smith Dinner on October 17, Cardinal Dolan invited members of the press to join him at the Elizabeth Seton Children’s Center in Yonkers on Monday, September 23 to see how the donations raised from the annual dinner are helping to save children’s lives.

Cardinal Dolan said this year’s dinner will raise a record $9 million and that the support they provide is part of the Church’s pro-life mission.
