Grants from Catholic bodies and related foundations, plus funders serving Catholic congregations.
Catholic congregations should start with their own regional body (diocese, conference, presbytery or synod) and its foundation. Many of these programs are open only to member churches. Listings below are tagged Catholic based on the funder's name or affiliation.
