CAFOD

CAFOD's mission is to promote human development and social justice in witness to Christian faith and Gospel values.

It does this by raising money in England and Wales to finance:

Long term development work

CAFOD works with some of the world's poorest communities.
Programmes include education and skills training, health care, safe water, and agricultural and small business development.

CAFOD is a partnership organisation. We don't just give money to poor communities and walk away, or just support projects in emergencies. We work hand in hand with local people to help them to respond to their own real needs. Come rain or shine, we stick with it.

In most places this means that we make a promise to a community - to help them to help themselves - enabling them to work and plan for a better, safer future.
