The Catholic Development Fund in the Auckland Diocese is governed by the Diocesan Administration Board, of which the Bishop is the principal trustee.

The CDF is an important source of funding for project and initiatives eg:

• Parish and Church renovations/additions etc
• School building projects.

With 65 Parishes and 56 schools in the Diocese the financial demands on our resources continue to grow.

Our aim is to grow the fund to help meet these needs.

The activities of the CDF are fully backed by the assets of the Catholic Diocese of Auckland, with both the CDF and the Diocesan financial accounts being subject to an annual audit.

CHRISTMAS CLOSURE

The CDF will be closed from Friday 23rd December 2011 to Wednesday 11th of January 2012

Bishop’s Statement

For you this is an opportunity to have an On Call Savings account and at the same time invest in the growth and progress of your catholic churches and schools.

Not only are you saving for your own family needs, you are also participating in providing opportunities for catholic schools and churches.

When you save with the CDF it has a trickle down effect and in turn helps the Diocese build schools and churches in your community.
