We are CAFOD
A better world needs all of us
CAFOD is the official overseas aid agency of the Catholic Church in England and Wales, part of Caritas Internationalis.
We believe God wants everyone to flourish — yet many people are struggling with conflict, the climate crisis, inequality and injustice.
Across parishes, schools and homes in England and Wales we inspire people to raise money, petition politicians and pray, so that together we can support communities in Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Middle East, as they strive to find practical, sustainable solutions to deep-rooted challenges.
We help all people, regardless of background, so that together we can build a better, fairer world – as God intended.
