Our Values
Communion
As members of the One Body of Christ, we are all connected – men and women, young and old, rich and poor. The Church is more than just a community. We are a communion of believers – past, present, and future.
The Catholic Foundation – Diocese of Austin strengthens these connections by providing a way to care for those in need, build on the work of past generations, and ensure the growth of the Church for future generations.
Stewardship
Everything we have, everything we are, is a gift from God, to be shared generously with others and returned with increase to the Lord. The Catholic Foundation – Diocese of Austin brings to life this connection between faith and giving. Read more in our Stewardship section.
Catholic Investing
Following Christ’s command to love our neighbor as ourselves, we stand in solidarity with the least among us by practicing Socially Responsible Investing as outlined by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops.
The Catholic Foundation – Diocese of Austin does not invest in companies or funds that are exploitive in nature, derive income from the destruction of human life, or hold values in conflict with those of the Catholic Church.
