Catholic Church Extension Society
Biography
The Catholic Church Extension Society exists to sustain and extend the Catholic Faith in poor and remote mission areas of the United States where diocesan resources are insufficient. Catholic Extension builds national awareness and raises funds for the Church’s needs in these communities so as to enable the essential mission of Catholic evangelization.
More about us:
With the help of generous donors, since 1905 more than $450 million has been distributed to mission dioceses to assist church building and repair, missionary salaries, seminarian education, evangelization and outreach programs, campus ministry and disaster relief.
Catholic Extension donations assist in the construction and repair of church buildings – to date more than 12,000 across the U.S.
Grants to parishes for religious education programs are critical in passing the Faith on to the next generation of Catholics.
Each year Catholic Extension helps nearly 400 future priests pay for the cost of their seminary education and provides grants for lay ministry formation.
Donations help fund the salaries of priests, religious and laity who minister to Catholics in poor, remote regions.
The sacraments, religious instruction and counseling are provided at more than 118 college campuses with grants from Catholic Extension.
Catholic Extension donations come to the aid of struggling parishes when disaster strikes their communities.
