Thank you for your support in 2023

The Catholic Community Fund has had a productive year in 2023.

Through the loyal support of our members, we have delivered effective funding strategies to build schools, early education centres, community housing, facilities for CatholicCare Social Services Hunter-Manning, fund parish initiatives and many other wonderful infrastructures across the Diocese.

We have also provided financial support to CatholicCare for their Food and Social Enterprise programs and to our parishes.

For the 2023 financial year we gave back $10m to our community, supporting the charitable works of the Diocese, its parishes and its agencies.

We want to thank you for the role you’ve played in helping us fund and support this important work.  

We are very grateful to you for your ongoing support of the Fund and look forward to continuing to serve you and our community in the new year.

  • investments that the Fund offers are not subject to the usual protections for investors under the Corporations Act (Cth) or regulation by ASIC;
  • there is a risk that you may not get any of your money back from us;
  • investments that the Fund offers are intended to attract investors whose main investment objective is to support our charitable work;
  • we have an identification statement which contains information about us which may be viewed at www.myccf.com.au/regulatory/
