Building Faith – Inspiring Hope – Igniting Change

Catholic Extension Society exists to support the Church’s ministry to the poor. We are the only nonprofit that fund-raises to support the Catholic Church in the poorest areas of the United States, where needs are great, and resources are scarce. With the generosity of individual donors as well as local and national foundations, we raise funds to help these poor, forgotten and often isolated communities flourish.

We invite you to connect with us on LinkedIn to receive updates on job openings and our mission.
