We are very grateful to the Unicaja Foundation because, for yet another academic year, it will help the integral formation of seminarians and diocesan priests from poor countries who come to Europe to receive an education of excellence.
Students always return to their home countries once they have completed their studies. training The company's activities were carried out in an integral manner, in this case at the Pontifical University of the Holy Cross in Rome.
The mission of the CARF Foundation is framed in elements:
The CARF Foundation -Centro Académico Romano Fundación-. was born on February 14, 1989, at the suggestion of St. John Paul II to Blessed Alvaro del Portillo. It has been in existence for more than 35 years.
Its objective is to help the academic, human and spiritual formation of seminarians and diocesan priests and religious men and women without financial resources to serve the church throughout the world.
Today, thanks to the support of its donors and friends, almost 25,000 in its history, and in the hundreds of them from Andalusiathe Foundation has helped about 30,000 students in 130 countries lacking material and economic resources. The Unicaja Foundation itself has been committed to this project for two years.
So that they can study and train in Italy (Pontifical University of the Holy Cross) and in Spain (Faculties of Ecclesiastical Studies of the University of Navarra).
The CARF Foundation upholds the values defined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights of the United Nations of 1948. And it makes special mention of the freedom, equality and religious freedom. Promoting international coexistence, freedom of opinion and expression and, above all, the right to education.
The commitment of institutions such as the Unicaja Foundation makes it possible for people without resources to train in Europe and return to their countries to train others; they give back what they have received. An endless chain of favors.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
