The CARF Foundation (acronym that stands for Centro Academico Romano Fundación) promotes activities of a cultural nature, aimed at the promotion and development of the humanities in all its manifestations, and, primarily, the specific formation received by seminarians, diocesan priests and religious of the Catholic Church.
We believe that it is possible to improve people's daily lives through the integral formation of young men with a vocation to serve through the priesthood. For this reason, the CARF Foundation, thanks to its benefactors, contributes financially so that seminarians, diocesan priests and religious from all over the world can receive a solid academic, theological, human and spiritual preparation.
Thanks to generous people like you, candidates can complete their academic, theological, human and spiritual formation in universities and seminaries in Rome and Pamplona.

With the help of a spiritual director, we can walk steadily in the following of Christ. And like the rich young ruler in the Gospel, we ask Jesus, "What must I do to inherit eternal life?"

From the White House to the Holy See. Entre el poder político y espiritual (Ed. Almuzara) is another example of the author's interest in the world's leading power, its presidents, electoral campaigns and Supreme Court justices, although at the same time he is well acquainted with the latest pontificates in the Church, an expression of a spiritual power and influence that goes far beyond the Catholic world.
Mwamba Nicholas Chisongo grew up in Zambia as an altar boy helping at Mass the European missionaries who brought the Gospel to his homeland. That is how his vocation was awakened in a boy who today is a priest and doctor in Canon Law. After a long period in Rome, he now has the important responsibility of forming future members of the clergy in the national seminary of this African country, which is materially poor but spiritually very rich.
