About the Serra International Foundation
The Serra International Foundation was founded in 1951 to assist Serra in fulfilling its objectives of fostering and promoting vocations in the Catholic Church. Since that time, the Foundation has funded a wide range of programs for the formation and training of priests and consecrated religious.
The Serra International Foundation sets as its goal to live as an organization dedicated to those programs that bring to us the holy men and holy women who are the successors to those who followed Jesus in the pilgrim Church. Without interruption, in this way it has quietly maintained its focus on serving you, your families, and all Catholics. It serves the Universal Church by working to financially assist those houses of formation for the priesthood and religious life.

Members of Serra throughout the world strive to exemplify our unique vocations mission in how we live each day, through individual acts as well as coordinated club efforts. Somewhere in all that is the call to support the mission of the Foundation in a financial way – through annual giving and planned giving for vocations. We entreat all Catholics, not just Serrans, to help us fulfill our unique and essential mission through their generosity.
Through its grant application review process, members of the Serra International Foundation Board are in a unique position to see and understand the needs of our Church. In recent years, the Foundation board has seen an increase in needs throughout the world, especially suffering and poor areas. The Church is truly growing and we are asked to assist!
