Catholic Community Foundation of Minnesota

The Catholic Community Foundation of Minnesota (CCF) stewards the financial gifts of individuals, families, parishes, and institutions through easy and tax-efficient charitable funds. People give through CCF, not to CCF. We help Catholics know the joy that comes from expressing faith through giving.

Give According to Your Faith

When you’re inspired to share your blessings, CCF is here to help you build a giving plan aligned with your Catholic values and honors your intentions. Whether you’re just beginning to explore your options or ready to take the next step, we’ll walk with you to make your giving simple, meaningful, and rooted in faith. 

Invest with Purpose

When you partner with CCF to steward a charitable fund, your gifts grow through faith-consistent investments managed by financial experts. Then you make grants from your fund to invest in your favorite ministries and missions. 

Grant to Causes You Believe In

You can support the causes closest to your heart and rest assured knowing CCF screens charities for financial standing and alignment with Catholic social teaching, allowing you to give with confidence and convenience.

Working Together for Good

We share your faith — and your hope, too. We feel privileged to witness and facilitate the faithful generosity of our local Catholic community. We’re here to serve as a partner and a resource to support your philanthropic goals.

CCF's Salt & Light Fund

The Salt & Light Fund (formerly the Legacy Fund) is CCF’s flagship unrestricted fund. Contributors to this fund collaboratively support urgent and unmet needs in our community. Grantmaking from the Salt & Light Fund strives to preserve the good work of critical charities in our community and address emergent needs as they become illuminated — today and tomorrow.
