The Catholic Foundation of the Archdiocese of New Orleans

The Catholic Community Foundation of the Archdiocese of New Orleans is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit established in 1976 to assist individuals and organizations in building lasting financial support for the parishes, schools, and other ministries of the archdiocese.  The Catholic Community Foundation empowers all Catholics of our archdiocese to become philanthropists. Being a philanthropist doesn’t mean you have to give away millions, or even thousands of dollars. It simply means that your charitable giving is organized and thoughtful. Whether you are just beginning to think about your charitable legacy or whether you are an experienced philanthropist seeking to learn about new ministries and nonprofit organizations to support, foundation staff can offer philanthropic advice with no obligation or fees. Together with your legal and financial advisors, we will work with you and your family to develop a successful and satisfying plan.
