A Note from the Executive Director
Greg Deja
Dear Friends,
The Catholic Foundation of West Michigan exists for a bold purpose: to be a sustaining source of generosity to meet the needs of our Catholic community for all time. The Catholic Foundation is an independent, 501(c)(3) community foundation serving West Michigan Catholics and endorsed by the Diocese of Grand Rapids and the Bishop, Most Reverend David J. Walkowiak.
We are committed to facilitating charitable giving to nurture, grow, and sustain a more caring community, one that is reflective of Christ’s love. Our investments and funding priorities align with and support Catholic teachings. We help donors create meaningful, lasting legacies through sophisticated investment vehicles, professional fund stewardship, optimal tax benefits, and opportunities for meaningful community impact. As we look forward with an invigorated vision, we invite you to join us, give wholeheartedly, and build a lasting and profound legacy of generosity for generations to come. May God continue to bless you and your family as we look forward in faith to a bright future.
Yours in Christ,
Greg Deja
