“FADICA has helped our family foundation to identify significant trends in Catholicism that have influenced both our proactive and responsive philanthropy. In addition, our participation in FADICA benefits our grantmaking by giving us an avenue to work more closely with other private foundations when such collaboration is beneficial.”
