Who We Are

The Catholic Foundation of Greater Philadelphia (CFGP) is an independent, nonprofit community foundation committed to growing philanthropy according to the teachings of Jesus Christ. Grounded in the principles of faith and service, CFGP meets the diverse needs of donors and Catholic institutions through charitable fund management and development consulting. Our services ensure an investment in the future of our faith.

CFGP was founded on July 1, 2013 by a dedicated group of Philadelphia Catholics who wanted to help preserve the goodness of our Faith. What started as an idea transformed into a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded on the principles of transparency and accountability. Since then, CFGP has been working to become the leading resource for Catholic and faith-based philanthropy.

Today, CFGP works with donors to manage their charitable funds, helping them choose investment opportunities that meet their needs. Through our consulting services, CFGP helps parishes and Catholic organizations grow and sustain their important work. By assisting both groups, CFGP helps multiply the impact of Catholic ministries for the people of the Greater Philadelphia region.
