The Mission of the Catholic Development Foundation is to support financially the spiritual, educational, and social well-being of our Catholic faith community and to help donors achieve their charitable and financial goals.

The Catholic Development Foundation was established in 1985 and is a securely structured organization. As a publicly supported 501(c)3 organization, the Foundation ensures the security of all donated funds so they may be used only for their intended purpose.

Guiding the Catholic Development Foundation is a board of directors made up of laity and clergy representing many professional fields of expertise and areas in the Diocese of Fargo. Professionals prominent in the financial community oversee all investment activity by the Foundation, providing expert and sound leadership for the Foundation's assets.
