FADICA ( Foundations and Donors Interested in Catholic Activities) A consortium of private grant makers supporting work sponsored by Roman Catholic agencies. The philanthropic group was established in 1976. As a membership organization, FADICA sponsors an ongoing series of conferences, publishes studies, conducts research on all aspects of church life and fund raising. The group was instrumental in mobilizing parish communities across the nation to assist retired American religious, and respond to church needs in Eastern and Central Europe and Russia. In recent years FADICA has been an influential force in improving church management and in saving Catholic urban schools.
