Sotheby’s is pleased to offer two stunning diamond pieces which will be sold to benefit Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston (lots 48 and 50). Since 1943, the mission of Catholic Charities has been to serve those in need — the most vulnerable — regardless of race, religion or creed. Through a network of life-changing programs that work together to alleviate poverty, Catholic Charities serves an average of 100,000 people each year from locations in Harris, Fort Bend and Galveston counties. As the social services arm of the Archdiocese, the agency is guided by the Catholic faith to serve people of all beliefs in achieving self-sufficiency so they can live with dignity.
