Preserving the Present - Securing the Future. For over 40 years, the Catholic Foundation for the Diocese of Tucson has steadfastly pursued its mission to inspire and steward Catholic generosity for our Diocese. We are devoted to serving our community and ensuring the continuation of vital health and social welfare and educational and religious programs operated by the Catholic Church in Southern Arizona.

Through its grants, donations, scholarships, and endowments, the Foundation has played a critical role in supporting our parishes, Catholic schools, Catholic Charities, and communities throughout Southern Arizona.
