We are CAFOD - the Catholic Agency for Overseas Development.

We are an international development charity who reach out to people living in poverty with practical help, whatever their religion or culture. CAFOD is the official aid agency of the Catholic Church in England and Wales and part of Caritas International.

Through our global Church network, one of the largest in the world, we have the potential to reach everyone. And we campaign for global justice, so that every woman, man and child can live a full and dignified life.

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.
