Give in Memory

Pay tribute to a loved one by helping others in their memory

When we lose someone we love, it can often help to do something positive in their name. By making a donation to CAFOD in their memory you can be sure you're helping their faith and values to live on.

We hope, in time, you will gain comfort and hope from knowing that your tribute is helping many people around the world.

If you would like to remember a loved one through a one-off gift in their honour or a collection in lieu of flowers at the funeral, please call 0500 858 885 or send a cheque to CAFOD, Romero House, 55 Westminster Bridge Road, London, SE1 7JB.

Please enclose a covering letter telling us the name of the person you would like to be remembered. Once we have received your gift, we will send you a letter of thanks and can also let a family member know of your donation, if you wish.
