Fr. Saju Joseph Charitable Fund

“It was not you who chose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit – fruit that will last.” – John 15:16

This fund was established in honor of Fr. Saju’s 25th anniversary of ordained ministry. These gifts will fund his philanthropy, allowing him to give in greater amounts to the ministries and organizations that he cherishes. This fund is NOT endowed, and Fr. Saju can make grants from this fund at any time in any amount.

The funds collected will be primarily used for the Homeless shelter started by Fr. Saju in collaboration with the DC (Daughters of Charity) Sisters in India. The homeless shelter is already constructed and officially opened. It can house 40 people. Your charitable gift will support the ongoing operation of this shelter which is completely dependent upon the generosity of donors.

The shelter is managed by the DC sisters in collaboration with the local community.

Thank you for your generosity and for helping us build FOREVER VALUE!
