The Catholic Foundation for the Diocese of Tucson is a recognized 501(c)(3) charitable organization, governed by an independent Board of Directors. We are the official fundraising entity for the Diocese, including its parishes, schools, programs, and ministries.

At the Catholic Foundation, we strive to be mission-driven, accountable, fiscally and organizationally transparent, and donor-focused. Abiding by the Association of Fundraising Professionals’ Code of Ethical Standard, our vision is to create opportunities to grow and establish the reign of God by enhancing God’s presence in the hearts of all people. We build endowment funds for the long-term sustainability of the local Catholic Church, help donors achieve their philanthropic goals, and invest funds responsibly and according to Catholic values.
