Foundation Funds & Endowments

 

The Catholic Foundation practices Christian stewardship by managing individual endowment funds for the benefit of parishes, schools and agencies in the Diocese of Sacramento. Each year, an endowment's earnings are used to help finance the specific purpose for which it was created. The Catholic Foundation provides an opportunity for individuals to practice their call to Christian stewardship while supporting their local Church.
