It’s a good policy to have. Catholic organizations especially tend to perform quite a lot of charitable work. Even the reactionaries we’re talking about almost certainly devote a large amount of the money they raise to charities, as well helping poor children get into Catholic schools (which can truly be a lifesaver, in as far as it gains the child access to a much better education than they would have otherwise had).

And not just that.
Locally, the Catholic Charities built an apartment complex to provide rent-free (or low-rent) and furnished housing to single moms having a hard time making ends meet, and provide the moms help improving job skills and completing their education.

This is a huge help to people. Huge.
