The Foundation’s mission has been to support the work of the Church through the parishes, schools, and religious programs throughout Eastern Washington.
For more information about our funds, please contact the Office of Stewardship & Development at (509) 358-7334
Our endowed funds benefit Bishop White Seminary, the education of seminarians, parishes, catholic schools, religious education programs, priest retirement, and scholarships (through tuition assistance).
Funds are established by individual donors who make contributions to the Catholic Foundation during their lifetime, or through their estates. The individuals are able to choose the recipient(s) of annual distributions from their endowed funds and to designate the purpose for which the distributions are to be used.
All of the endowed funds held by the Catholic Foundation are open-ended funds, meaning that individuals, estates of individuals, families or corporations may make contributions to any of the permanent endowed funds at any time.
