Caritas Veritate Missions puts faith, hope, and love into action by serving poor and vulnerable communities while sharing the riches of the Catholic faith.

We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit with active ministries in Tanzania and a proven history in Costa Rica, where our St. Francis Emmaus Center has provided care for at-risk indigenous mothers and children—helping reduce infant mortality by 50% in the Turrialba region. In Tanzania, we have brought clean water to over 12,000 people through completed well projects.

Working alongside local missions, we support water wells, evangelization, chapel building, lay missionaries, and pregnancy waiting hostels, bringing sustainable, Christ-centered change to communities most in need.

“ “To intensify the apostolic activity of the people of God,(1) the most holy synod earnestly addresses itself to the laity, whose proper and indispensable role in the mission of the Church has already been dealt with in other documents.(2) The apostolate of the laity derives from their Christian vocation and the Church can never be without it. Sacred Scripture clearly shows how spontaneous and fruitful such activity was at the very beginning of the Church “(cf. Acts 11:19-21; 18:26; Rom. 16:1-16; Phil. 4:3).”

Our Vision

At CARITAS VERITATE, we consider ourselves bigger than individual points on a map.

We want to be the connective tissue of the Body of Christ, bringing together the churches, individuals, and communities to play an important part in one another’s stories. YOU have the chance to be that connection when you donate, advocate, and become part of our story.
