Fraternal Outreach
Since 1883, we have lived our mission by empowering Catholic communities to serve, give, and grow.
Our Programs
Feeding God’s Children
Live Matthew 25 – “For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me drink…” – through these events.
Adopt A Seminarian
Connect with our future priests, build meaningful relationships, and expand awareness surrounding religious vocation.
Spirituality Tap-In
Join us for inspiring and thought-provoking conversation, grow in your faith and connect with local Catholics at these events!
Interested in hosting a Matching Funds event?
Local courts may hold only one Matching Funds event per year, and each event must be approved. Contact Judy James at jjames@catholicforester.org for any questions!
