The Koch Foundation was founded by Carl and Paula Koch in 1979 with the mission of supporting the evangelization of the Catholic faith worldwide. Inspired by Carl Koch's belief in stewarding finances on behalf of God, the Foundation dedicates itself to furthering Catholic teachings and principles.
The Koch Foundation prioritizes its funding through three primary areas: Direct Evangelization, Preparation of Evangelists, and Capital Expenditures. These priorities guide the foundation's support for projects and programs that enhance the teaching and spread of the Catholic faith. Direct Evangelization efforts include supporting mass media initiatives and Catholic schools to disseminate Catholic teachings globally. The Preparation of Evangelists focuses on the educational and religious formation of individuals to become missionaries and lay leaders within the faith. Funding is exclusively for official Catholic organizations and aims at empowering them to effectively spread and teach the Catholic faith through various means and programs.
