Overview

Mission

The mission of the Christus Vincit Foundation is to provide funding, through crowdfunding efforts and grants, to traditional Catholic projects, events, and organizations. By "traditional Catholic," it is meant those projects, events, and organizations that celebrate/support the Latin Mass or pre-1968 forms of worship. Such projects could include the installation of altar rails for a church or support for a Marian procession. Larger scale grants, for example, might be awarded to an organization seeking to build a chapel or restore a piece of sacred art. In addition, the Christus Vincit Foundation intends to educate the public on the importance of the Latin Mass, and traditional forms of worship, within Catholicism.

What it reported doing in 2021

The Foundation purchased and donated a 1962 altar Missal for Juventutem Lehigh Valley and the Cathedral of St. Catherine of Sienna in Allentown, PA.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 98% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Grant intermediary. The nonprofit sent 100% of its reported program spending out as grants.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
