The Maitland-Newcastle Diocese has about 4500 employees working in a variety of roles from support workers in our social services, to talented educators teaching over 20,000 students in 58 Catholic schools and 11 St Nicholas Early Education centres.
Together, we are focusing on our children and their future. Resources for education is an absolute priority for the Fund. You can help us build and enhance our Diocese’s pre-schools, primary schools and high schools with equipment and infrastructure.
With a fund term investment or saver account, you can achieve financial gain and help others at the same time.
“I love being an investor with the CCF, the staff are fantastic, and it gives me a real sense of pride,” Elizabeth Doyle.
Term Investments allow you to choose a fixed term that suits you, either three, six or 12 months, and receive a fixed rate of interest.
Associate Saver is an account offered to members who are associates of the Diocese, such as staff. We seek to offer competitive interest rates and staff can withdraw funds at any time.
CDPF Limited, a company established by the Australian Catholic Bishops Conference, has indemnified the Diocese of Maitland-Newcastle Catholic Development Fund for the Catholic Community Fund ABN 59 728 447 508 (Fund) against any liability arising out of a claim by investors in the Fund. In practice, this means your investment is backed by the assets of the Maitland-Newcastle Diocese. Money invested with the Fund is used to support the charitable works of the Catholic Church. This is achieved by providing a return on your investment that enables us to provide low-cost funding to assist Catholic organisations, including Catholic schools.
Accordingly, we are required by law to tell you that your investment with us is not comparable to those with banks, finance companies or fund managers.
The Fund is not regulated by the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) nor has it been examined or approved by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) because we have been granted exemptions.
Under these exemptions, we are required by law to tell you that:
