Inspire others

In our parishes, we can be part of a local community called to change the world. It’s a safe bet that there will be people in a pew near you keen to put their faith into action to tackle injustice, but not sure how. This is where you come in.

Our History

CAFOD was born when volunteer members of the National Board of Catholic Women organised the first Family Fast Day on Friday, March 11, 1960. Two years later, CAFOD was officially registered.

Since then we've continued to grow, alleviating poverty and working for global justice.
