My end goal is to provide meaningful innovative solutions to Catholic organizations of all stripes, but with a particular interest in Catholic schools and parishes.

This will mean expanding the scope of the services offered to include administrative tasks

My goal is to make this free. I don't think that money should ever stand between someone and the possibility of connecting with other faithful Catholics. That said, if you are in a position where you could contribute and the Catholic Common has added value to your life, then I would invite you to make a donation to help me continue pursuing this work. I will totally judge you if you don't. Just kidding! But there is a place where you can make a donation if you are so inclined.

I live in Boston and I am fortunate to be surrounded by some fairly active groups. So, a part of the inspiration was the desire to start connecting the various organic organizations around me.

There is a Catholic teaching known as the Principle of Subsidiarity, which says social and political decision-making should occur at the local level. So, my goal is not to supplant any organization, but rather to supply a bird’s-eye view of the different organizations that already exist. I do envision offering events and resources, but this would only be in response to a perceived gap. Again, the Catholic Common exists to promote all the good stuff that is already out there.
